17 Let the priests, who minister to the Lord,
Weep abetween the porch and the altar;
Let them say, b“Spare Your people, O Lord,
And do not give Your heritage to reproach,
That the nations should1 rule over them.
cWhy should they say among the peoples,
‘Where is their God?’ ”

“Behold, I will send you agrain and new wine and oil,
And you will be satisfied by them;
I will no longer make you a reproach among the nations.

20 “But aI will remove far from you bthe northern army,
And will drive him away into a barren and desolate land,
With his face toward the eastern sea
And his back ctoward the western sea;
His stench will come up,
And his foul odor will rise,
Because he has done1 monstrous things.”
And will drive him away into a barren and desolate land,

And his back ctoward the western sea;
His stench will come up,
And his foul odor will rise,
Because he has done1 monstrous things.”
22 Do not be afraid, you beasts of the field;
For athe open pastures are springing up,
And the tree bears its fruit;
The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
For athe open pastures are springing up,
And the tree bears its fruit;
The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
