Isaiah 32:14-19
English Standard Version
14 For the palace is forsaken,
the populous city deserted;
the hill and the watchtower
will become dens forever,
(A)a joy of wild donkeys,
a pasture of flocks;
15 until (B)the Spirit is poured upon us from on high,
and (C)the wilderness becomes a fruitful field,
and the fruitful field is deemed a forest.
16 Then justice will dwell in the wilderness,
and righteousness abide in the fruitful field.
17 (D)And the effect of righteousness will be peace,
and the result of righteousness, quietness and trust[a] forever.
18 My people will abide in a peaceful habitation,
in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places.
19 (E)And it will hail when the forest falls down,
(F)and the city will be utterly laid low.

New International Version
14 The fortress(A) will be abandoned,
the noisy city deserted;(B)
citadel and watchtower(C) will become a wasteland forever,
the delight of donkeys,(D) a pasture for flocks,(E)

and the desert becomes a fertile field,(G)
and the fertile field seems like a forest.(H)

its effect will be quietness and confidence(N) forever.

in secure homes,(P)
in undisturbed places of rest.(Q)

and the city is leveled(T) completely,
