17 Instead of bronze I will bring you gold.
    In place of iron I will give you silver.
Instead of wood I will bring you bronze.
    In place of stones I will give you iron.
I will make peace govern you.
    I will make godliness rule over you.
18 People will no longer harm one another in your land.
    They will not wipe out or destroy anything inside your borders.
You will call your walls Salvation.
    And you will name your gates Praise.
19 You will not need the light of the sun by day anymore.
    The bright light of the moon will no longer have to shine on you.
I will be your light forever.
    My glory will shine on you.
    I am the Lord your God.
