18 “At that time fresh wine will drip from the mountains.
    Milk will flow down from the hills.
    Water will run through all Judah’s valleys.
A fountain will flow out of my temple.
    It will water the places where acacia trees grow.
19 But Egypt will be deserted.
    Edom will become a dry and empty desert.
They did terrible harm to the people of Judah.
    My people were not guilty of doing anything wrong.
    But Egypt and Edom spilled their blood anyway.
20 My people will live in Judah and Jerusalem forever.
    The land will be their home for all time to come.
