¹⁴ He sends peace across your nation
    and satisfies your hunger with the finest wheat.

¹⁷ I will exchange your bronze for gold,
    your iron for silver,
your wood for bronze,
    and your stones for iron.
I will make peace your leader
    and righteousness your ruler.
¹⁸ Violence will disappear from your land;
    the desolation and destruction of war will end.
Salvation will surround you like city walls,
    and praise will be on the lips of all who enter there.

¹⁶ But I would feed you with the finest wheat.
    I would satisfy you with wild honey from the rock.”

¹¹ The Lord gives his people strength.
    The Lord blesses them with peace.

¹⁵ I will bless this city and make it prosperous;
    I will satisfy its poor with food.

¹⁴ He fed them yogurt from the herd
    and milk from the flock,
    together with the fat of lambs.
He gave them choice rams from Bashan, and goats,
    together with the choicest wheat.
You drank the finest wine,
    made from the juice of grapes.

⁸ I will guard my Temple
    and protect it from invading armies.
I am watching closely to ensure
    that no more foreign oppressors overrun my people’s land.

¹² This is what the Lord says:
“I will give Jerusalem a river of peace and prosperity.
    The wealth of the nations will flow to her.
Her children will be nursed at her breasts,
    carried in her arms, and held on her lap.

⁶ Pray for peace in Jerusalem.
    May all who love this city prosper.
