Blessings for God’s People

Then you will know that I am the LORD your God,

who dwells in Zion, My holy mountain.

Jerusalem will be holy,

never again to be overrun by foreigners

18 

And in that day the mountains will drip with sweet wine,

and the hills will flow with milk.

All the streams of Judah will run with water,

and a spring will flow from the house of the LORD

to water the Valley of Acacias.[fn]

19 

Egypt will become desolate,

and Edom a desert wasteland

because of the violence done to the people of Judah,

in whose land they shed innocent blood.

20 

But Judah will be inhabited forever

and Jerusalem from generation to generation.

21 

For I will avenge their blood,

which I have not yet avenged.[fn]” For the LORD dwells in Zion.
