14 For the palace will be forsaken,
    the crowded city[a] deserted;
the hill and the watchtower will become[b] a cave forever,
    the joy of wild asses, a pasture for[c] flocks.

15 Until a spirit is poured out on us from on high,

and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field,
    and the fruitful field is reckoned as the forest.
16 Then[d] justice will dwell in the wilderness,
    and righteousness will live in the fruitful field.
