"sweet wine will drip from the mountains." This is an exaggeration to show that the land is very fertile. Alternate translation: "On the mountains there will be vineyards that produce plenty of sweet wine" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-hyperbole]])

# the hills will flow with milk

"milk will flow from the hills." The land being very fertile is spoken of as if the hills would flow with milk. Alternate translation: "on the hills your cattle and goats will produce plenty of milk" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
