The Lord's Covenant of Peace

^25 (A)“I will make with them a covenant of peace and ^(B)banish wild beasts from the land, ^(C)so that they may dwell securely in the wilderness and sleep in the woods. ²⁶ And I will make them and the places all around my hill ^(D)a blessing, and ^(E)I will send down the showers in their season; they shall be ^(F)showers of blessing. ^27 (G)And the trees of the field shall yield their fruit, and the earth shall yield its increase, ^(H)and they shall be secure in their land. And ^(I)they shall know that I am the Lord, when ^(J)I break the bars of their yoke, and ^(K)deliver them from the hand of those who enslaved them.

³¹ And you are my sheep, ^(A)human sheep of my pasture, and I am your God, declares the Lord God.”
