They shall lament for the teats, for the pleasant fieldes, for the fruitfull vine.

Upon the land of my people shall come vp thornes, and briars, yea vpon all the houses of ioy in the ioyous citie.

Because the palaces shall be forsaken, the multitude of the citie shall be left, the forts and towres shall be for dennes for euer, a ioy of wild asses, a pasture of flockes;

Untill the spirit be powred vpon vs from on high, and the wildernesse be a fruitfull field, and the fruitfull field be counted for a forrest.

Then iudgement shall dwell in the wildernesse, and righteousnesse remaine in the fruitfull field.

And the worke of righteousnesse shalbe peace, and the effect of righteousnesse, quietnesse and assurance for euer.

And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places:

When it shall haile, comming downe on the forrest; and the citie shall be low in a low place.

Blessed are yee that sow beside all waters, that send forth thither the feete of the oxe and the asse.
