*
It shall be as when the harvester gathers the grain ,
And reaps the heads with his arm ;
It shall be as he who gathers heads of grain In the Valley of Rephaim .
*
Yet gleaning grapes will be left in it ,
Like the shaking of an olive tree ,
Two or three olives at the top of the uppermost bough ,
Four or five in its most fruitful branches ,"
Says the LORD God of Israel .
*
In that day a man will look to his Maker ,
And his eyes will have respect for the Holy One of Israel .
*
He will not look to the altars ,
The work of his hands ;
He will not respect what his fingers have made ,
Nor the wooden images nor the incense altars .
*
In that day his strong cities will be as a forsaken bough And an uppermost branch ,
Which they left because of the children of Israel ;
And there will be desolation .
*
Because you have forgotten the God of your salvation ,
And have not been mindful of the Rock of your stronghold ,
Therefore you will plant pleasant plants And set out foreign seedlings ;
*
In the day you will make your plant to grow ,
And in the morning you will make your seed to flourish ;
But the harvest will be a heap of ruins In the day of grief and desperate sorrow .
