20 I will remove the northern army far from you,
    and drive it into a parched and desolate land,
its front into the eastern sea,
    and its rear into the western sea;
its stench and foul smell will rise up.

21 Do not fear, O soil;
    be glad and rejoice,
    for the Lord has done great things!

    for the pastures of the wilderness are green;
the tree bears its fruit,
    the fig tree and vine give their full yield.
