Isaiah 32:12-20
1599 Geneva Bible
12 Men shall lament for the [a]teats, even for the pleasant fields, and for the fruitful vine.
13 Upon the land of my people shall grow thorns and briers: yea, upon all the houses of joy in the city of rejoicing,
14 Because the palace shall be forsaken, and the [b]noise of the city shall be left: the tower and fortress shall be dens forever, and the delight of wild asses, and a pasture for flocks,
15 Until the [c]Spirit be poured upon us from above, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the [d]plenteous field be counted as a forest.
16 And judgment shall dwell in the desert, and justice shall remain in the fruitful field.
17 And the work of justice shall be peace, even the work of justice and quietness, and assurance forever.
18 And my people shall dwell in the tabernacle of peace, and in sure dwellings, and in safe resting places.
19 When it haileth, it shall fall on the forest, and the [e]city shall be in the low place.
20 Blessed are ye [f]that sow upon all waters, and [g]drive thither the feet of the ox and the ass.
