Joel 3:17-19
The Voice
17 Eternal One: Then you will know that I am the Eternal, your God,
and I live in Zion, My sacred mountain.
Jerusalem will be My holy city;
never again will foreign invaders infiltrate it.
18 On that great day, the Eternal will provide:
Sweet wine will drip down from the mountains.
Fresh milk will pour down from the hills.
Clear water will run through Judah’s ravines.
A fountain will bubble up from the Eternal’s temple
and water the arid stream bed of Shittim.
19 Egypt will become a wasteland and Edom a lonely desert,
because they violently attacked the people of Judah
And murdered the innocent in Israel.
Joel 3:17-19

dwell in Zion,(C) my holy hill.(D)
Jerusalem will be holy;(E)
never again will foreigners invade her.(F)
18 “In that day the mountains will drip new wine,(G)
and the hills will flow with milk;(H)
all the ravines of Judah will run with water.(I)
A fountain will flow out of the Lord’s house(J)
and will water the valley of acacias.[a](K)
19 But Egypt(L) will be desolate,
Edom(M) a desert waste,
because of violence(N) done to the people of Judah,
in whose land they shed innocent blood.
