6 The land by the sea will become grasslands.
It will have wells for shepherds and pens for flocks.

among the people of Judah.
They will find grasslands there.
They will take over
the houses in Ashkelon and live in them.
The Lord their God will take care of them.
He will bless them with great success again.
