23 “I will turn it into a place where nothing but owls can live.
    I will turn it into a swamp.
I will sweep through it like a broom and destroy everything,”
    announces the Lord who rules over all.

“You can be sure that what I have planned will happen.

    On my mountains I will walk all over them.
The yokes they put on my people will be removed.
    The heavy load they put on their shoulders will be taken away.”
