You shall no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall your land any more be termed Desolate: but you shall be called Cheftzi-Bah, and your land Beulah; for the LORD delights in you, and your land shall be married.

I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, 'It is my people;' and they will say, 'The LORD is my God.'*
*For the seed of shalom and the vine will yield its fruit, and the ground will give its increase, and the heavens will give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.
and I will bring them, and they will dwell in the midst of Yerushalayim; and they will be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.*
Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this,* says the LORD of Armies, *if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough for.
I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before its time in the field,* says the LORD of Armies.
