Agricultural Fertility Restored to the Repentant Nation
2:21 “At that time, I will willingly respond,” declares the Lord.
“I will respond to the sky,
and the sky will respond to the ground;
2:22 then the ground will respond to the grain, the new wine, and the olive oil;
and they will respond to ‘God Plants’ (Jezreel)!
2:23 Then I will plant her as my own in the land.
I will have pity on ‘No Pity’ (Lo-Ruhamah).
I will say to ‘Not My People’ (Lo-Ammi), ‘You are my people!’
And he will say, ‘You are my God!’”
Joel 3:18
3:18 On that day the mountains will drip with sweet wine,
and the hills will flow with milk.
All the dry stream beds of Judah will flow with water.
A spring will flow out from the temple of the Lord,
watering the Valley of Acacia Trees.
Zechariah 9:15-17
9:15 The
Lord who rules over all will guard them, and they will prevail and overcome with sling stones. Then they will drink, and will become noisy like drunkards,
full like the sacrificial basin or like the corners of the altar.
9:16 On that day the
Lord their God will deliver them as the flock of his people, for they are the precious stones of a crown sparkling over his land.
9:17 How precious and fair!
Grain will make the young men flourish and new wine the young women.
