[168] παραγενομένων δὲ πολισθήσονται πάλιν αἱ ἐρείπιοι γενόμεναι πρὸ μικροῦ καὶ ἡ ἔρημος οἰκισθήσεται καὶ ἡ στειρωθεῖσα γῆ μεταβαλεῖ πρὸς εὐγονίαν· αἵ τε πατέρων καὶ προγόνων εὐτυχίαι βραχὺ μέρος εἶναι νομισθήσονται διὰ τὰς ἀφθόνους τῶν ἐν
χερσὶ περιουσίας, αἳ καθάπερ ἀπ’ ἀενάων πηγῶν τῶν τοῦ θεοῦ χαρίτων ῥέουσαι βαθὺν πλοῦτον ἰδίᾳ τε ἑκάστῳ καὶ πᾶσι κοινῇ περιποιήσουσι φθόνου κρείττονα.

[168] And when they come cities will be rebuilt which but a short time ago were in complete ruins, and the desert will be filled with inhabitants, and the barren land will change and become fertile, and the good fortune of their fathers and ancestors will be looked upon as a matter of but small importance, on account of the abundance of wealth of all kinds which they will have at the present moment, flowing forth from the graces of God as from ever-running fountains, which will thus confer vast wealth separately on each individual, and also on all the citizens in common, to an amount beyond the reach even of envy.
