1 ^eThe wilderness and the dry land shall be glad;
^fthe desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus;
2 it shall blossom abundantly
and rejoice with joy and singing.
^gThe glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
the majesty of ^hCarmel and ⁱSharon.
^jThey shall see the glory of the Lord,
the majesty of our God.

For the Lord ^lhas comforted his people
and will have compassion on his afflicted.

12 ^m“For you shall go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
ⁿthe mountains and the hills before you
shall break forth into singing,
and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
13 ^oInstead of the thorn shall come up the cypress;
instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle;
and it shall make a name for the Lord,
an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.”
