24 The threshing floors will be full of grain,
    the vats spilling over with new wine and oil.
25 I will repay you double

The hopper, the consuming locust, and the cutter,
    my great army I sent against you.(A)

Who acts so wondrously on your behalf!
    My people will never again be put to shame.
