18. Your mind will be thinking of the terrors ⌊in the past⌋.Where are the scribes?Where are the tax collectors?Where are those who counted the towers?
19. You will no longer see those savage people,those people with an unrecognizable language,with a foreign language that you can’t understand.
20. Look at Zion, the city of our festivals.Your eyes will see Jerusalem as a peaceful place.It is a tent that can’t be moved.Its tent pegs will never be pulled out,and none of its ropes will be broken.
21. The Lord will be our mighty defenderin a place surrounded by wide rivers and streams.Ships with oars won’t travel on them.Stately ships won’t sail on them.
