Deliverance Promised

18 Then the Lord [a]will be (A)zealous for His land
And [b]will have (B)pity on His people.
19 The Lord [c]will answer and say to His people,
“Behold, I am going to (C)send you grain, new wine and oil,
And you will be satisfied in full with [d]them;
And I will (D)never again make you a reproach among the nations.
20 “But I will remove the (E)northern army far from you,
And I will drive it into a parched and desolate land,
And its vanguard into the (F)eastern sea,
And its rear guard into the (G)western sea.
And its (H)stench will arise and its foul smell will come up,
For it has done great things.”
