12 so my people[a] may inherit the remnant of Edom
    and all of the nations that bear my name,”
        declares the Lord who is bringing this about.

13 “Look! The days are coming,”
    declares the Lord,
“when the one who sows will overtake the harvester
    and the treader of grapes will overtake[b] the planter.
Fresh wine will drip down from the mountains,
    cascading down from the hills.
14 I will surely restore my people Israel;
    they will rebuild the ruined cities
        and inhabit them.[c]
They will plant vineyards
    and drink the wine from them.
They will plant gardens
    and eat the fruit from them.
