I will turn the desert into a pool and dry land into springs.I will plant cedar, acacia, myrtle, and olive trees in the wilderness. I will put juniper, elm, and cypress trees together in the desert.so that all may see and know, consider and understand, that the hand of the LORD has done this, the Holy One of Israel has created it.

Then our sons will be like plants nurtured in their youth, our daughters, like corner pillars that are carved in the palace style.Our storehouses will be full, supplying all kinds of produce; our flocks will increase by thousands and tens of thousands in our open fields.Our cattle will be well fed. There will be no breach in the walls, no going into captivity, and no cry of lament in our public squares.Happy are the people with such blessings. Happy are the people whose God is the LORD.
