13 Upon the land of my people shall come up the thorn of the sharp point; so upon the houses of rejoicing of the exulting city. 14 For the fortress was left, the multitude of the city was forsaken; the hill and the watch-tower for caves even forever; the rejoicing of the wild asses a pasture of the flocks; 15 Until the spirit shall be poured upon us from on high, and the desert be for Carmel, and Carmel be reckoned for a forest. 16 And judgment dwelling in the desert, and justice shall sit in Carmel. 17 And the work of justice was peace, and the service of justice, rest and confidence, even to forever. 18 And my people shall sit in a dwelling of peace, and in habitations of trust and in quiet resting places. 19 And the hail hailing upon the forest; and the city shall be made low in lowness. 20 Happy ye sowing upon all waters, sending the foot of the ox and the ass.
