⁷ The parched ground shall become a pool,
And the thirsty land springs of water;
In ^(A)the habitation of jackals, where each lay,
There shall be grass with reeds and rushes.

²³ Be glad then, you children of Zion,
And ^(A)rejoice in the Lord your God;
For He has given you the ^[a]former rain faithfully,
And He ^(B)will cause the rain to come down for you—
The former rain,
And the latter rain in the first month.
