The Glorious Future

1BeholdH2005, a 1kingH4428 will reignH4427 righteouslyH6664 And princesH8269 will ruleH8323 justlyH4941.2EachH376 will be like a 2refugeH4224 from the windH7307 And a shelterH5643 from the stormH2230, Like 34streamsH6388 of waterH4325 in a dryH6724 countryH6724, Like the 5shadeH6738 of a 6hugeH3515 rockH5553 in 7a parchedH5889 landH776.3Then 8the eyesH5869 of those who seeH7200 will not be 9blindedH8173, And the earsH241 of those who hearH8085 will listenH7181.4The 10mindH3824 of the 11hastyH4116 will discernH995 the 12truthH1847, And the tongueH3956 of the stammerersH5926 will hastenH4116 to speakH1696 clearlyH6703.5NoH3808 longerH5750 will the 13foolH5036 be calledH7121 nobleH5081, Or the rogueH3596 be spokenH559 of as generousH7771.6For a foolH5036 speaksH1696 nonsenseH5039, And his heartH3820 1415inclinesH6213 toward wickednessH205: To practiceH6213 16ungodlinessH2612 and to speakH1696 errorH8442 againstH413 the LordH3068, To 1718keepH7385 the hungryH7457 personH5315 unsatisfiedH7385 And 19to withholdH2637 drinkH4945 from the thirstyH6771.7As for a rogueH3596, his weaponsH3627 are evilH7451; He 20devisesH3289 wickedH2154 schemesH2154 To 21destroyH2254 the afflictedH6041 with 22slanderH561H8267, 23Even though the needyH34 oneH34 speaksH1696 24whatH4941 is rightH4941.8But 25the nobleH5081 manH5081 devisesH3289 nobleH5082 plansH5082; And by nobleH5082 plansH5082 he standsH6965.

9RiseH6965 up, you 26womenH802 whoH7600 are at easeH7600, And hearH8085 my voiceH6963; 27GiveH238 earH238 to my wordH565, You complacentH982 daughtersH1323.10WithinH5921 a yearH8141 and a few daysH3117 You will be troubledH7264, O complacentH982 daughters; 28For the vintageH1210 is endedH3615, And the fruit gatheringH625 will not comeH935.11TrembleH2729, you women whoH7600 are at easeH7600; 29Be troubledH7264, you complacentH982 daughters; 30StripH6584, undressH6209 and putH2296 sackcloth on your waistH2504,1231BeatH5594 your breastsH7699 for the pleasantH2531 fieldsH7704, for the fruitfulH6509 vineH1612,1332For the landH127 of my peopleH5971 in which thornsH6975 and briarsH8068 shall comeH5927 up; YeaH3588, for allH3605 the joyfulH4885 housesH1004 and for the 33jubilantH5947 cityH7151.14BecauseH3588 34the palaceH759 has been abandonedH5203, the 35populatedH1995 36cityH5892 forsakenH5800. 37HillH6076 and watch-towerH975 have becomeH1961 38cavesH4631 foreverH5704H5769, A delightH4885 for 39wildH6501 donkeysH6501, a pastureH4829 for flocksH5739;15UntilH5704 the 40SpiritH7307 is pouredH6168 out upon us from on highH4791, And the wildernessH4057 becomesH1961 a 41fertileH3759 fieldH3759, And the fertileH3759 fieldH3759 is consideredH2803 as a forestH3293.16Then 42justiceH4941 will dwellH7931 in the wildernessH4057 And righteousnessH6666 will abideH3427 in the fertileH3759 fieldH3759.17And the 43workH4639 of righteousnessH6666 will be peaceH7965, And the serviceH5656 of righteousnessH6666, 44quietnessH8252 and 45confidenceH983 foreverH5704H5769.18Then my peopleH5971 will liveH3427 in a 46peacefulH7965 habitationH5116, And in secureH4009 dwellingsH4908 and in undisturbedH7600 47restingH4496 placesH4496;19And it will 48hailH1258 when the 49forestH3293 comesH3381 downH3381, And 50the cityH5892 will be utterlyH8218 laidH8213 lowH8213.20How 51blessedH835 will you be, you who sowH2232 besideH5921 allH3605 watersH4325, Who 52letH7971 out freelyH7971 the oxH7794 and the donkeyH2543.
