20 The northerners[a]
    I will remove from you;
I will drive them to a desert
    and desolate land,
its[b] front to the eastern sea,
    and its rear into the western sea;
its stench and odor will rise up
    because he[c] has done great things.
21 Do not fear, O land,
    rejoice and be glad,
        because Yahweh has done great things.
22 Do not fear, wild animals of the field,
    because the pastures of the desert have put forth new green shoots,
because the tree has produced its fruit,
    the fig tree and the vine
        have yielded their produce.
