21 “Fear not, O land;
    be glad and rejoice,
    for (A)the Lord has done great things!
22 Fear not, (B)you beasts of the field,
    for (C)the pastures of the wilderness are green;
(D)the tree bears its fruit;
    the fig tree and (E)vine give their full yield.

23 (F)“Be glad, O children of Zion,
    and (G)rejoice in the Lord your God,
for he has given (H)the early rain for your vindication;
    he has poured down for you abundant rain,
    (I)the early and (J)the latter rain, as before.

24 “The threshing floors shall be full of grain;
    the vats shall overflow with wine and oil.
25 I will restore[a] to you the years
    that (K)the swarming locust has eaten,
(L)the hopper, (M)the destroyer, and (N)the cutter,
    (O)my great army, which I sent among you.
