67:6 The earth yields its crops.
May God, our God, bless us!
85:12 Yes, the Lord will bestow his good blessings, 4
and our land will yield 5 its crops.
30:23 He will water the seed you plant in the ground,
and the ground will produce crops in abundance. 6
At that time 7 your cattle will graze in wide pastures.
65:21 They will build houses and live in them;
they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
65:22 No longer will they build a house only to have another live in it, 8
or plant a vineyard only to have another eat its fruit, 9
for my people will live as long as trees, 10
and my chosen ones will enjoy to the fullest what they have produced. 11
34:25 “‘I will make a covenant of peace with them and will rid the land of wild beasts, so that they can live securely 12 in the wilderness and even sleep in the woods. 13 34:26 I will turn them and the regions around my hill into a blessing. I will make showers come down in their season; they will be showers that bring blessing. 14 34:27 The trees of the field will yield their fruit and the earth will yield its crops. They will live securely on their land; they will know that I am the Lord, when I break the bars of their yoke and rescue them from the hand of those who enslaved them. 34:28 They will no longer be prey for the nations and the wild beasts will not devour them. They will live securely and no one will make them afraid.
2:24 The threshing floors are full of grain;
the vats overflow with fresh wine and olive oil.
2:26 You will have plenty to eat,
and your hunger will be fully satisfied; 15
you will praise the name of the Lord your God,
who has acted wondrously in your behalf.
My people will never again be put to shame.
1 tn Heb “will reach for you the vintage season.”
2 tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative force here.
3 tn Heb “to satisfaction”; KJV, ASV, NASB “to the full.”
4 tn Heb “what is good.”
5 tn Both “bestow” and “yield” translate the same Hebrew verb (נָתַן, natan). The repetition of the word emphasizes that agricultural prosperity is the direct result of divine blessing.
6 tn Heb “and he will give rain for your seed which you plant in the ground, and food [will be] the produce of the ground, and it will be rich and abundant.”
7 tn Or “in that day” (KJV).
8 tn Heb “they will not build, and another live [in it].”
9 tn Heb “they will not plant, and another eat.”
10 tn Heb “for like the days of the tree [will be] the days of my people.”
11 tn Heb “the work of their hands” (so KJV, NASB, NIV, NRSV); NLT “their hard-won gains.”
12 tn The phrase “live securely” occurs in Ezek 28:26; 38:8, 11, 14; 39:26 as an expression of freedom from fear. It is a promised blessing resulting from obedience (see Lev 26:5-6).
13 sn The woods were typically considered to be places of danger (Ps 104:20-21; Jer 5:6).
14 tn Heb “showers of blessing.” Abundant rain, which in turn produces fruit and crops (v. 27), is a covenantal blessing for obedience (Lev 26:4).
15 tn Heb “you will surely eat and be satisfied.”
