Isaiah 32:12-20

Beat your breasts in sorrow for your pleasant fields and fruitful vines. Mourn for the soil of my people, for it will grow nothing but thorns and briars. Yes, mourn for all the houses of joy in the joyous city, for the bustling city with its mansions will be deserted. The high ground and watchtower will be empty, becoming the joy of wild donkeys and a grazing ground for flocks. The desolation will not end until the Spirit is poured out upon us from heaven! Then the wilderness will blossom into a fruitful orchard and the trees of the orchard will grow into a forest! Then justice will reside in the wilderness and righteousness will dwell in the fruitful orchard. The work of righteousness is peace, and the result of righteousness is quietness and confidence forever. My people will live free from worry in secure homes and quiet resting places. No matter if hail destroys the forest and the city is leveled, you will be happy and blessed as you sow your seed beside every stream and loose your ox and donkey to graze freely.
