[16] On that day the LORD their God will save them
And the Lord shall save them on this day
For they are the flock of his people;
As sheep are his people
For like jewels on a crown they shall shine on his land
Because holy stones roll upon his land
[17] For what beauty and goodness are his!
Because if something of his is good and if something is fine is from him
Grain shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the young women
Wheat shall be to the young men and sweet smelling wine to the maidens
Notes on Text
This passage is a fairly standard example of the promise of deliverance by God for the chosen people ushering in an era of bounty, and I think mostly serves as the obvious conclusion to verses 9-17 particularly and the chapter as a whole generally.
