17 Is it not yet a very little while
    (A)until Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field,
    and the fruitful field shall be regarded as a forest?
18 In that day (B)the deaf shall hear
    (C)the words of a book,
and out of their gloom and darkness
    (D)the eyes of the blind shall see.
19 (E)The meek shall obtain fresh joy in the Lord,
    and the poor among mankind shall exult in the Holy One of Israel.
20 For the ruthless shall come to nothing
    and (F)the scoffer cease,
    and all who watch to do evil shall be cut off,
21 who by a word make a man out to be an offender,
    and (G)lay a snare for him who reproves in the gate,
    and with an empty plea (H)turn aside him who is in the right.
