The Lord’s Covenant of Peace

25 g“I will make with them a covenant of peace and hbanish wild beasts from the land, iso that they may dwell securely in the wilderness and sleep in the woods. 26And I will make them and the places all around my hill ja blessing, and kI will send down the showers in their season; they shall be lshowers of blessing. 27 mAnd the trees of the field shall yield their fruit, and the earth shall yield its increase, nand they shall be secure in their land. And othey shall know that I am the Lord, when pI break the bars of their yoke, and qdeliver them from the hand of those who enslaved them. 28 rThey shall no more be a prey to the nations, snor shall the beasts of the land devour them. tThey shall dwell securely, and none shall make them afraid. 29And I will provide for them urenowned plantations so that vthey shall no more be consumed with hunger in the land, and no longer wsuffer the reproach of the nations. 30And they shall know that xI am the Lord their God with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, declares the Lord God. 31And you are my sheep, yhuman sheep of my pasture, and I am your God, declares the Lord God.”
