21 “Set up signposts,
Make landmarks;
aSet your heart toward the highway,
The way in which you went.
1Turn back, O virgin of Israel,
Turn back to these your cities.

Turn back to these your cities.
22 How long will you agad about,
O you bbacksliding daughter?
For the Lord has created a new thing in the earth—
A woman shall encompass a man.”

Future Prosperity of Judah
23 Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “They shall again use this speech in the land of Judah and in its cities, when I bring back their captivity: a‘The Lord bless you, O home of justice, and bmountain of holiness!’
24 And there shall dwell in Judah itself, and ain all its cities together, farmers and those going out with flocks.
25 For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.”
26 After this I awoke and looked around, and my sleep was asweet to me.
27 “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, that aI will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man and the seed of beast.
