9
Rise up, you women who are at ease,
And hear my voice;
Listen to my word,
You complacent daughters.
10
Within a year and a few days
You will be troubled, you complacent daughters;
For the vintage is ended,
And the fruit gathering will not come.
11
Tremble, you women who are at ease;
Be troubled, you complacent daughters;
Strip, undress, and put sackcloth on your waist,
12
Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine,
13
For the land of my people in which thorns and briars will come up;
Indeed, for all the joyful houses and for the jubilant city.
14
For the palace has been neglected, the populated city abandoned.
Hill and watch-tower have become caves forever,
A delight for wild donkeys, a pasture for flocks,
15
Until the Spirit is poured out upon us from on high,
And the wilderness becomes a fertile field,
And the fertile field is considered as a forest.
16
Then justice will dwell in the wilderness,
And righteousness will remain in the fertile field.
17
And the work of righteousness will be peace,
And the service of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
18
Then my people will live in a peaceful settlement,
In secure dwellings, and in undisturbed resting places;
19
And it will hail when the forest comes down,
And the city will be utterly laid low.
20
How blessed will you be, you who sow beside all waters,
Who let the ox and the donkey out freely.
