14. Palaces will be deserted.Noisy cities will be abandoned.Fortresses and watchtowers will become permanent caves.They will be a delight for wild donkeys and pastures for flocks
15. until the Spirit is poured on us from on high.Then the wilderness will be turned into a fertile field,and the fertile field will be considered a forest.
16. Then justice will live in the wilderness,and righteousness will be at home in the fertile field.
17. Then an act of righteousness will bring about peace,calm, and safety forever.
18. My people will live in a peaceful place,in safe homes and quiet places of rest.
19. The forest will be flattened because of hail,and the city will be completely leveled.
20. Blessed are those who plant beside every streamand those who let oxen and donkeys roam freely.
