Isaiah 32:15-20

Revised Standard Version

¹⁵ until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high,
    and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field,
    and the fruitful field is deemed a forest.

¹⁶ Then justice will dwell in the wilderness,
    and righteousness abide in the fruitful field.
¹⁷ And the effect of righteousness will be peace,
    and the result of righteousness, quietness and trust for ever.
¹⁸ My people will abide in a peaceful habitation,
    in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places.
¹⁹ And the forest will utterly go down,^[a]
    and the city will be utterly laid low.
²⁰ Happy are you who sow beside all waters,
    who let the feet of the ox and the ass range free.
