The Land Refreshed
“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.
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.”
For athe open pastures are springing up,
And the tree bears its fruit;
The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
And arejoice in the Lord your God;
For He has given you the1 former rain faithfully,
And He bwill cause the rain to come down for you—
The former rain,
And the latter rain in the first month.

Joel 2:20
The northern army - That part of the locusts which are toward the north. With his face - The van of this army shall be driven into the dead sea, east of Jerusalem. The hinder part - The rear of this army shall be driven into the west sea. His stink - The stench of these locusts destroying and lying putrified on the face of the earth, or the corpses of the Assyrians slain and unburied.
