23. Thus says the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel: Once again they shall use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities when I restore their fortunes: “May the Lord bless you, O habitation of righteousness and mountain of holiness!”
24. And Judah and all its cities will dwell there, the farmer and those who go out with the flocks.
25. For I satiate the weary souls and I replenish every languishing soul.
26. Upon this I awoke and looked, and my sleep was sweet to me.
27. Surely, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man and with the seed of beast.
28. It shall come to pass that as I have watched over them to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and to destroy, and to afflict, so I will watch over them, to build, and to plant, says the Lord.
29. In those days they will say no more: “The fathers have eaten sour grapes,and the children’s teeth are set on edge.”
