² In that day the ^(A)Branch of the Lord will be beautiful and glorious, and the ^(B)fruit of the earth will be the pride and the adornment of the ^(C)survivors of Israel.

²³ On the high mountain of Israel I will plant it, that it may bring forth boughs and bear fruit and become a stately ^(A)cedar. And birds of every ^[a]kind will ^[b]nest under it; they will ^[c]nest in the shade of its branches.

²⁶ I will make them and the places around My hill a ^(A)blessing. And I will cause ^(B)showers to come down in their season; they will be showers of ^(C)blessing. ²⁷ Also the tree of the field will yield its fruit and the earth will yield its increase, and they will be ^(D)secure on their land. Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I have ^(E)broken the bars of their yoke and have delivered them from the hand of those who enslaved them. ²⁸ They will no longer be a prey to the nations, and the beasts of the earth will not devour them; but they will ^(F)live securely, and no one will make them afraid. ²⁹ I will establish for them a ^(G)renowned planting place, and they will ^(H)not again be ^[a]victims of famine in the land, and they will not ^(I)endure the insults of the nations anymore.
