Judah Will Be Blessed

18 And on that day
The (A)mountains will drip with [a]sweet wine,
And the hills will (B)flow with milk,

And a (D)spring will go out from the house of the Lord
And water the Valley of [b]Shittim.

And (E)rejoice in the Lord your God;
For He has (F)given you [b]the early rain for your vindication.
And He has brought down for you the rain,
The [c]early and [d](G)latter rain [e]as before.

And the vats will (H)overflow with the new wine and oil.
