The
wilderness and the
desert will be
glad, And the
Arabah will
rejoice and
blossom; Like the

It will
blossom profusely And
rejoice with
rejoicing and
shout of
joy. The
glory of
Lebanon will be
given to it, The
majesty of
Carmel and
Sharon. They will
see the
glory of the
LORD, The
majesty of our
God.

Say to those with
anxious heart,
"Take courage,
fear not.
Behold, your
God will
come with
vengeance; The
recompense of
God will
come, But He will
save you."

Then the

Then the

shout for
joy. For
waters will
break forth in the
wilderness And
streams in the
Arabah.

The
scorched land will
become a
pool And the
thirsty ground springs of
water; In the
haunt of
jackals, its
resting place,
Grass becomes
reeds and
rushes.

A
highway will be
there, a
roadway, And it will be
called the
Highway of
Holiness. The
unclean will not
travel on it, But it will be for him who
walks that
way, And
fools will not
wander on it.

And the
ransomed of the
LORD will
return And
come with
joyful shouting to
Zion, With
everlasting joy upon their
heads. They will
find gladness and
joy, And
sorrow and
sighing will
flee away.
