17 “So you will know that I am Yahweh, your God,
    dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain.
Then Jerusalem will be holy,
    and no strangers will pass through her any more.
18 It will happen in that day,
    that the mountains will drop down sweet wine,
    the hills will flow with milk,
    all the brooks of Judah will flow with waters,
    and a fountain will flow out from Yahweh’s house,
    and will water the valley of Shittim.
19 Egypt will be a desolation,
    and Edom will be a desolate wilderness,
    for the violence done to the children of Judah,
    because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
20 But Judah will be inhabited forever,
    and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
21 I will cleanse their blood,
    that I have not cleansed:
    for Yahweh dwells in Zion.”

17 So shall ye know that I am Jehovah your God, dwelling in Zion my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more.

18 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth from the house of Jehovah, and shall water [a]the valley of Shittim. 19 Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence done to the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land. 20 But Judah shall [b]abide for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation. 21 And I will [c]cleanse their blood, that I have not cleansed: for Jehovah dwelleth in Zion.
