23. I will appoint for them a single shepherd, and he will feed them. My servant David will feed them. He will be their shepherd.
24. I, the Lord, will be their God, and my servant David will be their prince. I, the Lord, have spoken.
25. I will make a covenant of peace for them, and I will banish the wild animals from the land. Then they will safely live in the desert and sleep in the forest.
26. I will give them and those around my hill a blessing by sending the rain in its season. They will be rains of blessing.
27. The trees in the field will bear fruit, and the earth will yield its harvest. They will be safe on their fertile land, and they will know that I am the Lord when I break the bars of their yoke and deliver them from those who enslaved them.
28. The nations will no longer prey on them, and wild animals will no longer devour them. They will live in safety, with no one to trouble them.
29. I will establish for them a place famous for what it grows. No longer will they experience famine in the land, nor will they bear the disgrace of the nations.
