Isaiah 32:16

Against The Carefree Women

¹⁵
Until the Spirit is poured out upon us from on high,
And the wilderness becomes a fertile field,
And the fertile field is valued as a forest.
¹⁶

And righteousness will live in the fertile field.
¹⁷
And the effect of righteousness will be peace,
And the result of righteousness will be quietness and confident trust forever.
