I will cause Jacob's family to have descendants.
There will be people of Judah's family
    who will live on my mountains.
The land will belong to the people that I have chosen.
    My servants will live there.
10 Sharon will become a field where sheep safely eat grass.
    Cows will rest in the Valley of Achor.
Those places will belong to my people,
    those who want to serve me.
11 But punishment will come
    to those people who turn away from the Lord.
You forget to worship me on my holy mountain.[a]
Instead, you prepare food and wine
    to offer to your false gods called “Luck” and “Fate”.
