1. The wilderness and the dry land shall be gladdened; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.
2. It shall blossom abundantly and rejoice even with joy and shouting: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of Jehovah, the excellency of our God
3. Strengthen the weak hands and confirm the tottering knees.
4. Say to them that are of a timid heart, Be strong, fear not; behold your God vengeance cometh, the recompense of God He will come himself, and save you.
5. Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf be unstopped;
6. then shall the lame man leap as a hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and torrents in the desert.
