²⁰ The wild animals^(A) honor me,
    the jackals^(B) and the owls,
because I provide water^(C) in the wilderness
    and streams in the wasteland,
to give drink to my people, my chosen,

¹⁸ In that day I will make a covenant for them
    with the beasts of the field, the birds in the sky
    and the creatures that move along the ground.^(A)
Bow and sword and battle
    I will abolish^(B) from the land,
    so that all may lie down in safety.^(C)
