World English Bible
22 It shall happen, that because of the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat butter; for everyone will eat butter and honey that is left within the land.
23 It will happen in that day that every place where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silver shekels,[a] shall be for briers and thorns. 24 People will go there with arrows and with bow, because all the land will be briers and thorns.
