13and for the land of my people,
overgrown with thorns and briers —
even for every house of merriment
in this city of revelry.
14For the palace will be forsaken,
the busy city abandoned.
The hill and the watchtower will become caves forever —
the delight of wild donkeys
and a pasture for flocks —
15until the Spirit is poured out
upon us from on high.
Then the desert will be an orchard,
and the orchard will seem like a forest.
— Isaiah 32:13-15
