18 Then LORD was jealous for his land, and had pity on his people. 19 And LORD answered and said to his people, Behold, I will send you grain, and new wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith. And I will no more make you a reproach among the nations.

And shall praise the name of LORD your God, who has dealt wondrously with you. And my people shall never be put to shame. 27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am LORD your God, and there is none else. And my people shall never be put to shame.
