In context
9Stand up, you complacent women; 10In a little more than a year you will tremble, 11Shudder, you ladies of leisure; 12Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields, 13and for the land of my people, 14For the palace will be forsaken, 15until the Spirit is poured out 16Then justice will inhabit the wilderness, 17The work of righteousness will be peace; 18Then my people will dwell in a peaceful place, 19But hail will level the forest, 20Blessed are those who sow beside abundant waters,
