They shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria: and I will place them in their houses, saith the LORD.

Verse 11 is found in chapter 11 of Hosea. God announces that Israel will follow the Lord when he roars like a lion and that the children will return from different directions. The image of the roar combines authority and summons. The return from Egypt and Assyria turns the judgment of exile into a stage that will ultimately be followed by restoration. Judah is also mentioned as a witness to a situation of imperfect faithfulness.

Und die in Ägypten werden auch erschrocken kommen wie die Vögel, und die im Lande Assur wie Tauben; und ich will sie in ihre Häuser setzen, spricht der HERR.
Como ave se moverán velozmente de Egipto, y de la tierra de Asiria como paloma; y pondrelos en sus casas, dice Jehová.
Ils accourront de l'Egypte, comme un oiseau, Et du pays d'Assyrie, comme une colombe. Et je les ferai habiter dans leurs maisons, dit l'Eternel.
Accorreranno con timore di Egitto, come uccelletti; e dal paese di Assiria, come colombe; ed io li farò abitare nelle lor case, dice il Signore.
Tremendo virão como um passarinho, os do Egito, e como uma pomba, os da terra da Assíria, e os farei habitar em suas casas, diz o SENHOR.
他們必如雀鳥從 埃及 戰兢而來, 又如鴿子從 亞述 地來到。 我必使他們住自己的房屋; 這是耶和華說的。
