16 Then justice will dwell in the wilderness,
And righteousness remain in the fruitful field.

17 ^aThe work of righteousness will be peace,
And the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever. ‡

19 ^aThough hail comes down ^bon the forest,
And the city is brought low in humiliation. ‡

20 Blessed are you who sow beside all waters,
Who send out freely the feet of ^athe ox and the donkey. ‡
