13But the land will become a waste because of its people, as the fruit of their works.
14Keep your people safe with your rod, the flock of your heritage, living by themselves in the woods in the middle of Carmel: let them get their food in Bashan and Gilead as in the past.
15As in the days when you came out from the land of Egypt, let us see things of wonder.
16The nations will see and be shamed because of all their strength; they will put their hands on their mouths, their ears will be stopped.
17They will take dust as their food like a snake, like the things which go flat on the earth; they will come shaking with fear out of their secret places: they will come with fear to the Lord our God, full of fear because of you.
18Who is a God like you, offering forgiveness for evil-doing and overlooking the sins of the rest of his heritage? he does not keep his wrath for ever, because his delight is in mercy.
19He will again have pity on us; he will put our sins under his feet: and you will send all our sins down into the heart of the sea.
