International Children’s Bible
18 The Lord says, “Forget what happened before.
Do not think about the past.
19 Look at the new thing I am going to do.
It is already happening. Don’t you see it?
I will make a road in the desert.
I will make rivers in the dry land.
20 Even the wild animals will be thankful to me.

They will honor me when I make rivers in the dry land.
I will do this to give water to my people, the ones I chose.
