Yahweh continues speaking to the people of Israel.
## See ##
"Listen carefully"
## I am about to bring back the fortunes of Jacob's tents and have compassion on his homes ##
AT: "I am about to cause the descendants of Jacob to prosper and I will have compassion on them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
## Then a city will be built on the heap of ruins ##
AT: "Then they will rebuild Jerusalem on its ruins" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
## Then a song of praise and a sound of merriment will go out from them ##
"Then they will sing songs of praise and joy"
## for I will increase them and not diminish them ##
Both of these phrases mean God will cause the number of Israelites to increase. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])

AT: "I will bless them and cause other people to honor them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-litotes]])
