¹¹ For the Lord will deliver Jacob
    and redeem^(A) them from the hand of those stronger^(B) than they.
¹² They will come and shout for joy^(C) on the heights^(D) of Zion;
    they will rejoice in the bounty^(E) of the Lord—
the grain, the new wine and the olive oil,^(F)
    the young of the flocks^(G) and herds.
They will be like a well-watered garden,^(H)
    and they will sorrow^(I) no more.
¹³ Then young women will dance and be glad,
    young men and old as well.
I will turn their mourning^(J) into gladness;
    I will give them comfort^(K) and joy^(L) instead of sorrow.

¹³ Rend your heart^(A)
    and not your garments.^(B)
Return^(C) to the Lord your God,
    for he is gracious and compassionate,^(D)
slow to anger and abounding in love,^(E)
    and he relents from sending calamity.^(F)
14 Who knows? He may turn^(G) and relent^(H)
    and leave behind a blessing^(I)—
grain offerings and drink offerings^(J)
    for the Lord your God.

“I am sending you grain, new wine^(C) and olive oil,^(D)
    enough to satisfy you fully;^(E)
never again will I make you
    an object of scorn^(F) to the nations.

²³ Be glad, people of Zion,
    rejoice^(A) in the Lord your God,
for he has given you the autumn rains
    because he is faithful.^(B)
He sends you abundant showers,^(C)
    both autumn^(D) and spring rains,^(E) as before.
²⁴ The threshing floors will be filled with grain;
    the vats will overflow^(F) with new wine^(G) and oil.

¹⁸ “In that day the mountains will drip new wine,^(A)
    and the hills will flow with milk;^(B)
    all the ravines of Judah will run with water.^(C)
A fountain will flow out of the Lord’s house^(D)
    and will water the valley of acacias.^[a](E)

“when the reaper^(B) will be overtaken by the plowman^(C)
    and the planter by the one treading^(D) grapes.
New wine^(E) will drip from the mountains
    and flow from all the hills,^(F)
14     and I will bring^(G) my people Israel back from exile.^[a](H)

“They will rebuild the ruined cities^(I) and live in them.
    They will plant vineyards^(J) and drink their wine;
    they will make gardens and eat their fruit.^(K)
15 I will plant^(L) Israel in their own land,^(M)
    never again to be uprooted^(N)
    from the land I have given them,”^(O)

says the Lord your God.^(P)
