Joel 3:17-21
Legacy Standard Bible
17 Then you will (A)know that I am Yahweh your God,
Dwelling in Zion, My (B)holy mountain.
So Jerusalem will be (C)holy,
And (D)strangers will pass through it no more.
Yahweh Dwells in Zion
18 And it will be in that day,
That the (E)mountains will drip with [a]sweet wine,
And the hills will (F)flow with milk,
And all the (G)brooks of Judah will flow with water;
And a (H)spring will go out from the house of Yahweh
To water the valley of [b]Shittim.
19 Egypt will become a desolation,
And Edom will become a desolate wilderness,
Because of the (I)violence [c]done to the sons of Judah,
In whose land they have shed innocent blood.
20 But Judah will be (J)inhabited forever
And Jerusalem from generation to generation.
21 And I will (K)avenge their blood which I have not avenged,
Indeed, Yahweh dwells in Zion.
Joel 3:17-21
Common English Bible
17 So you will know that I am the Lord your God,
settle down in Zion, my holy mountain.
Jerusalem will be holy,
and never again will strangers pass through it.
18 In that day
the mountains will drip sweet wine,
the hills will flow with milk,
and all the streambeds of Judah
will flow with water;
a spring will come forth from the Lord’s house
and water the Shittim Valley.
19 Egypt will become desolate
and Edom a desolate wilderness.
This is because of the violence done to the people of Judah,
in whose land they have shed innocent blood.
20 But Judah will be inhabited forever,
and Jerusalem for all generations.
21 I will forgive their bloodguilt,
which I had not forgiven.
I will act on their account;
I will not pardon the guilty.
The Lord dwells in Zion.
