16 You will throw them into the air,
    and the wind will blow them away in all directions!
You will be happy with what the Lord has done for you.
    You will boast that the Holy God of Israel is your God.
17 Poor and helpless people look for water to drink,
    but there is none.
    They are so thirsty that their tongues are dry.
But I, the Lord, will answer their prayers.
    I, the God of Israel, will not leave them alone.
18 I will make rivers run over the dry hills.
    I will make springs of water in the valleys.
I will make pools of water in the desert.
    The dry land will become a place of streams.

17 When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the Lord will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.
