⁹ For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn into you, and you shall be tilled and sown;

¹¹ Yahweh of Hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

⁸ You answered them, Yahweh our God. You are a God who forgave them, Although you took vengeance for their doings.

³⁴ The land that was desolate shall be tilled, whereas it was a desolation in the sight of all who passed by.

²¹ It will happen in that day, I will respond," says Yahweh, I will respond to the heavens, And they will respond to the earth;

²² And the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; And they will respond to Jezreel.

²³ I will sow her to me in the earth; And I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; And I will tell those who were not my people, 'You are my people;' And they will say, 'My God!'"

¹⁸ It will happen in that day, That the mountains will drop down sweet wine, The hills will flow with milk, All the brooks of Judah will flow with waters; And a fountain will come forth from the house of Yahweh, And will water the valley of Shittim.

¹⁹ Is the seed yet in the barn? Yes, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree haven't brought forth. From this day will I bless you.'"

¹² "For the seed of peace and the vine will yield its fruit, and the ground will give its increase, and the heavens will give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.

¹⁰ Bring the whole tithe into the store-house, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this," says Yahweh of hosts, "if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough for.

¹¹ I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before its time in the field," says Yahweh of Hosts.

³¹ What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
