In a very short time, Lebanon will become rich farmland, and the rich farmland will seem like a forest. At that time the deaf will hear the words in a book. Instead of having darkness and gloom, the blind will see. The LORD will make the poor people happy; they will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel. Then the people without mercy will come to an end; those who do not respect God will disappear. Those who enjoy doing evil will be gone: those who lie about others in court, those who trap people in court, those who lie and take justice from innocent people in court. This is what the LORD who set Abraham free says to the family of Jacob: “Now the people of Jacob will not be ashamed or disgraced any longer. When they see all their children, the children I made with my hands, they will say my name is holy. They will agree that the Holy One of Jacob is holy, and they will respect the God of Israel. People who do wrong will now understand. Those who complain will accept being taught.”
