19 The Lord replied[a] to them:

“I am sending you grain, new wine(A) and olive oil,(B)
    enough to satisfy you fully;(C)
never again will I make you
    an object of scorn(D) to the nations.

20 “I will drive the northern horde(E) far from you,
    pushing it into a parched and barren land;
its eastern ranks will drown in the Dead Sea
    and its western ranks in the Mediterranean Sea.
And its stench(F) will go up;
    its smell will rise.”

Surely he has done great things!
21     Do not be afraid,(G) land of Judah;
    be glad and rejoice.(H)
Surely the Lord has done great things!(I)
