Chapter 14

1But Hashem will pardon Yaakov, and will again choose Yisrael, and will settle them on their own soil. And strangers shall join them and shall cleave to the House of Yaakov.

2For peoples shall take them and bring them to their homeland; and the House of Yisrael shall possess them as slaves and handmaids on the soil of Hashem. They shall be captors of their captors and masters to their taskmasters.
