Egypt will not help you in your time of need.

Had you been calm, tranquil and had faith, Hashem would have saved you with minimal effort on your part. (Radak, Metsudos)
-
Nevertheless, Hashem will have great mercy on Yisrael. Radak, Eben Ezra, Rashi: this is referring to the times of Mashiach, after the war of Gog u’Magog.

Hashem will show Tzion and Yerushalayim great kindness.
-
“Your Teacher (Hashem) will no longer be hidden from you, and your eyes will see your Teacher.”

The moon will revert back to its original size, as it was at the time of creation, and it will shine with the same bright light as the sun.

Hashem will heal the physically and emotionally ill people.
