until he re-establishes Jerusalem
And makes it the praise of the earth.
The Blessings of Salvation for God’s People
8 [a]The Lord has sworn by his right hand
and by his mighty arm:
No more will I give your grain
as food to your enemies;
Nor shall foreigners drink the wine,
for which you toiled.(A)
9 But those who harvest shall eat,
and praise the Lord;
Those who gather shall drink
in my holy courts.(B)

in the courts of my sanctuary.”(G)
