I am not angry,
but if I do find briers and thorns there,
I will fight them!
I will charge against them and set them all on fire.
To prevent this, let them turn to me for protection
and make peace with me.
Let them make peace with me![a]

In days to come,
Jacob will take root.
Israel will blossom and bud.
It will fill the whole world with fruit.

    let them make peace(C) with me,
    yes, let them make peace with me.”

In days to come Jacob will take root,(D)
    Israel will bud and blossom(E)
    and fill all the world with fruit.(F)
