19 The Lord answered and said to his people,
“Behold, (A)I am sending to you
    grain, wine, and oil,
    (B)and you will be satisfied;
and I will no more make you
    a reproach among the nations.

20 “I will remove the northerner far from you,
    and drive him into a parched and desolate land,
his vanguard[a] into (C)the eastern sea,
    and his rear guard[b] into (D)the western sea;
(E)the stench and foul smell of him will rise,
    for he has done great things.

21 “Fear not, O land;
    be glad and rejoice,
    for (F)the Lord has done great things!
