Isaiah

Isaiah 32:16–18

16Then justice will inhabit the wilderness,

and righteousness will dwell in the fertile field.

17The work of righteousness will be peace;

the service of righteousness will be quiet confidence forever.

18Then my people will dwell in a peaceful place,

in safe and secure places of rest.
