15 Instead of you being forsaken
    and hated with no one passing through,[a]
I will make[b] you an everlasting object of pride,[c]
    a joy of coming generations.[d]
16 And you shall suck the milk of nations,
    and suck the breast of kings,
and you shall know that I am Yahweh your Savior,
    and your Redeemer, the Strong One of Jacob.
17 Instead of bronze I will bring gold,
    and instead of iron I will bring silver,
and instead of wood, bronze,
    and instead of stones, iron.
And I will appoint[e] peace as your overseer,
    and righteousness as your ruling body.[f]
