1. The desert will rejoice,and flowers will bloom in the wilderness.
2. The desert will sing and shout for joy;it will be as beautiful as the Lebanon Mountainsand as fertile as the fields of Carmel and Sharon.Everyone will see the Lord's splendour,see his greatness and power.
3. Give strength to hands that are tiredand to knees that tremble with weakness.
4. Tell everyone who is discouraged,“Be strong and don't be afraid!God is coming to your rescue,coming to punish your enemies.”
