Isaiah 32:15-20
Revised Standard Version
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.
The Peace of God’s Reign
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.
