For, lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith the LORD; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah.
"Indeed, I will summon all the family groups from the northern kingdoms," says the Lord. "They will come and each one will set up their throne at the entrance to Jerusalem's gates, around its walls, and against all the cities of Judah."
