⁶ Then will the lame^(A) leap like a deer,^(B)
    and the mute tongue^(C) shout for joy.^(D)
Water will gush forth in the wilderness
    and streams^(E) in the desert.
⁷ The burning sand will become a pool,
    the thirsty ground^(F) bubbling springs.^(G)
In the haunts where jackals^(H) once lay,
    grass and reeds^(I) and papyrus will grow.

⁸ And a highway^(J) will be there;
    it will be called the Way of Holiness;^(K)
    it will be for those who walk on that Way.
The unclean^(L) will not journey on it;
    wicked fools will not go about on it.

¹⁹ See, I am doing a new thing!^(A)
    Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness^(B)
    and streams in the wasteland.^(C)

¹⁰ They will neither hunger nor thirst,^(A)
    nor will the desert heat or the sun beat down on them.^(B)
He who has compassion^(C) on them will guide^(D) them
    and lead them beside springs^(E) of water.

¹¹ I will turn all my mountains into roads,
    and my highways^(A) will be raised up.^(B)
