23 Be glad then, you children of Zion,
And (A)rejoice in the Lord your God;
For He has given you the [a]former rain faithfully,
And He (B)will cause the rain to come down for you—
The former rain,
And the latter rain in the first month.
24 The threshing floors shall be full of wheat,
And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.

25 “So I will restore to you the years (C)that the swarming [b]locust has eaten,
The crawling locust,
The consuming locust,
And the chewing locust,
My great army which I sent among you.
