That beautiful crown of flowers is just a dying plant.
    It sits on a hill above a rich valley.
That city will be like the first fig of summer.
    When a person sees it,
    he quickly picks it and eats it.

At that time the Lord of heaven’s armies
    will be like a beautiful crown.
He will be like a wonderful crown of flowers
    for his people who are left alive.
Then the Lord will give wisdom
    to the judges who rule his people.
The Lord will give strength
    to those who battle at the city gate.
