Isn’t it true that in just a little while
Lebanon will become an orchard,
and the orchard will seem like a forest?

Lord, it is true that the kings of Assyria have devastated all these countries and their lands.

All the nations are gathered together,
and the peoples are assembled.
Who among them can declare this,
and tell us the former things?
Let them present their witnesses
to vindicate themselves,
so that people may hear and say, “It is true.”
