The Glorious Future of Judah

17 (A)“So you shall know that I am the Lord your God,
    (B)who dwells in Zion, (C)my holy mountain.
And Jerusalem shall be holy,
    and (D)strangers shall never again pass through it.

18 “And in that day
(E)the mountains shall drip sweet wine,
    and the hills shall flow with milk,
and (F)all the streambeds of Judah
    shall flow with water;
(G)and a fountain shall come forth from the house of the Lord
    and water the Valley of (H)Shittim.

19 (I)“Egypt shall become a desolation
    and (J)Edom a desolate wilderness,
(K)for the violence done to the people of Judah,
    because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
20 (L)But Judah shall be inhabited forever,
    and Jerusalem to all generations.
21 (M)I will avenge their blood,
    blood I have not avenged,[a]
    (N)for the Lord dwells in Zion.”
