KJV ORIGINAL
All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin’s gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king’s winepresses.

✦ MADE SIMPLE
The whole land is going to be flattened out like a huge plain, stretching from Geba all the way down to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. But Jerusalem? She's getting elevated and rebuilt right where she belongs — from Benjamin's gate to the first gate, to the corner gate, and from Hananeel's tower all the way to the king's winepresses.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Everything gets leveled except Jerusalem — she gets lifted up and fully restored.
