33 This is what the Lord God says: On the day I make you clean from all your sins, I will have you live in your towns again and make sure the ruins are rebuilt.
thus to say Lord YHWH/God in/on/with day be pure I [obj] you from all iniquity: crime your and to dwell [obj] [the] city and to build [the] desolation
34 The land that was deserted will be cultivated again instead of looking abandoned to everyone passing by.
