20 “But I will remove the (A)northern army far from you,
And I will drive it into a parched and desolate land,
And its vanguard into the (B)eastern sea,
And its rear guard into the (C)western sea.
And its (D)stench will arise and its foul smell will come up,
For it has done great things.”

21 (E)Do not fear, O land, rejoice and be glad,
For the Lord has done (F)great things.
22 Do not fear, beasts of the field,
For the (G)pastures of the wilderness have turned green,
For the tree has borne its fruit,
The fig tree and the vine have yielded [a]in full.
