29 “Then the Lord said, ‘Hezekiah, I will give you this sign:

This year you will eat the grain that grows ·wild [L of itself],
    and the second year you will eat what ·grows [springs] from that.
But in the third year, ·plant grain [sow] and ·harvest it [reap].
    Plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
30 ·Some of the people in [A remnant of] the ·family [L house] of Judah
    will ·escape [survive].
·Like plants that take root [They will put down roots below],
    ·they will grow strong and have many children [and will bear fruit above].
31 A ·few people will come out of Jerusalem alive [remnant will spread out from Jerusalem];
    ·a few from Mount Zion will live [and survivors out from Mount Zion].
The ·strong love [zeal] of the Lord All-Powerful
    will ·make this happen [accomplish this].’
