15 Look, I have made you like a new threshing board with many sharp teeth.
    You will trample mountains and crush them.
    You will make the hills[a] like chaff.
16 You will throw them into the air,
    and the wind will blow them away and scatter them.
Then you will be happy in the Lord.
    You will be proud of the Holy One of Israel.

17 “The poor and needy look for water,
    but they cannot find any.
    Their tongues are dry with thirst.
I, the Lord, will answer their prayers.
    I, the God of Israel, will not leave them to die.
