Isaiah 35:3-10

3 ^aStrengthen the weak hands,
and make firm the feeble knees.
4 Say to those who have an anxious heart,
“Be strong; fear not!
^bBehold, your God
will come with vengeance,
with the recompense of God.
He will come and save you.”
5 ^cThen the eyes of the blind shall be opened,
and the ears of the deaf unstopped;
6 ^dthen shall the lame man leap like a deer,
and the tongue of the mute sing for joy.
^eFor waters break forth in the wilderness,
and streams in the desert;
7 ^fthe burning sand shall become a pool,
and the thirsty ground springs of water;
in the haunt of ^gjackals, where they lie down,
the grass shall become reeds and rushes.
8 ^hAnd a highway shall be there,
and it shall be called the Way of Holiness;
ⁱthe unclean shall not pass over it.
It shall belong to those who walk on the way;
even if they are fools, they shall not go astray. ^{▼▼Or if they are fools, they shall not wander in it}
9 No lion shall be there,
nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it;
they shall not be found there,
but the redeemed shall walk there.
10 ^kAnd the ransomed of the Lord shall return
and come to Zion with singing;
^leverlasting joy shall be upon their heads;
they shall obtain gladness and joy,
and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
