20 Your sun will never set again,
    and your moon will never be dark,
because the Lord will be your light forever,
    and your time of sadness will end.
21 All of your people will do what is right.
    They will receive the earth forever.
They are the plant I have planted,
    the work of my own hands

    The least important of you will become a powerful nation.
I am the Lord,
    and when it is time, I will make these things happen quickly.”
