15 Instead of your being deserted and hated,
with no one passing through,(A)
I will make you an object of eternal pride,(B)
a joy from age to age.
16 You will nurse on the milk of nations,
and nurse at the breast of kings;(C)
you will know that I, Yahweh, am your Savior(D)
and Redeemer,(E) the Mighty One of Jacob.(F)

17 I will bring gold instead of bronze;
I will bring silver instead of iron,
bronze instead of wood,
and iron instead of stones.
I will appoint peace as your guard
and righteousness as your ruler.
