as if in[a] their own pastures,(E)
and resident aliens[b] will eat
among the ruins of the rich.

15 Humanity will be humiliated;
    each person laid low,
    the eyes of the exalted laid low.

    and the holy God will show himself holy in righteousness.
17 Lambs will graze as if in their pasture;
    young goats[a] will feed among the ruins of the rich.[b]
