World English Bible Classic
[1] The wilderness and the dry land will be glad.
The desert will rejoice and blossom like a rose.
[2] It will blossom abundantly,
and rejoice even with joy and singing.
Lebanon’s glory will be given to it,
the excellence of Carmel and Sharon.
They will see Yahweh’s glory,
the excellence of our God. [3] Strengthen the weak hands,
and make the feeble knees firm.
[4] Tell those who have a fearful heart, “Be strong!
Don’t be afraid!
Behold, your God will come with vengeance, God’s retribution.
He will come and save you. [5] Then the eyes of the blind will be opened,
and the ears of the deaf will be unstopped.
[6] Then the lame man will leap like a deer,
and the tongue of the mute will sing;
for waters will break out in the wilderness,
and streams in the desert.
[7] The burning sand will become a pool,
and the thirsty ground springs of water.
Grass with reeds and rushes will be in the habitation of jackals, where they lay.
[8] A highway will be there, a road,
and it will be called “The Holy Way”.
The unclean shall not pass over it,
but it will be for those who walk in the Way.
Wicked fools shall not go there.
[9] No lion will be there,
nor will any ravenous animal go up on it.
They will not be found there;
but the redeemed will walk there.
[10] Then Yahweh’s ransomed ones will return,
and come with singing to Zion;
and everlasting joy will be on their heads.
They will obtain gladness and joy,
and sorrow and sighing will flee away.”
The desert will rejoice and blossom like a rose.

The Glory of the Lord
[1] The wilderness H4057 and the solitary place H6723 shall be glad H7797 (QalImpf) for them; and the desert H6160 shall rejoice, H1523 (QalImpf) and blossom H6524 (QalImpf) as the rose. H2261 [2] It shall blossom H6524 (QalImpf) abundantly, H6524 (QalInf) and rejoice H1523 (QalImpf) even with joy H1525 and singing: H7444 (PielInf) the glory H3519 of Lebanon H3844 shall be given H5414 (NiphPerf) unto it, the excellency H1926 of Carmel H3760 and Sharon, H8289 they shall see H7200 (QalImpf) the glory H3519 of the Lord, H3068 and the excellency H1926 of our God. H430 [3] Strengthen H2388 (PielImpv) ye the weak H7504 hands, H3027 and confirm H553 (PielImpv) the feeble H3782 (QalActPtc) knees. H1290 [4] Say H559 (QalImpv) to them that are of a fearful§ H4116 (NiphPtc) heart, H3820 Be strong, H2388 (QalImpv) fear H3372 (QalImpf) not: behold, your God H430 will come H935 (QalImpf) with vengeance, H5359 even God H430 with a recompence; H1576 he will come H935 (QalImpf) and save H3467 (HiphImpf) you. [5] Then the eyes H5869 of the blind H5787 shall be opened, H6491 (NiphImpf) and the ears H241 of the deaf H2795 shall be unstopped. H6605 (NiphImpf) [6] Then shall the lame H6455 man leap H1801 (PielImpf) as an hart, H354 and the tongue H3956 of the dumb H483 sing: H7442 (QalImpf) for in the wilderness H4057 shall waters H4325 break out, H1234 (NiphPerf) and streams H5158 in the desert. H6160 [7] And the parched ground H8273 shall become a pool, H98 and the thirsty land H6774 springs H4002 of water: H4325 in the habitation H5116 of dragons, H8577 where each lay, H7258 shall be grass H2682 with reeds H7070§ and rushes. H1573 [8] And an highway H4547 shall be there, and a way, H1870 and it shall be called H7121 (NiphImpf) The way H1870 of holiness; H6944 the unclean H2931 shall not pass over H5674 (QalImpf) it; but it shall be for those:§ the wayfaring men, H1980 (QalActPtc) though fools, H191 shall not err H8582 (QalImpf) therein. [9] No lion H738 shall be there, nor any ravenous H6530 beast H2416 shall go up H5927 (QalImpf) thereon, it shall not be found H4672 (NiphImpf) there; but the redeemed H1350 (QalPasPtc) shall walk H1980 (QalPerf) there: [10] and the ransomed H6299 (QalPasPtc) of the Lord H3068 shall return, H7725 (QalImpf) and come H935 (QalPerf) to Zion H6726 with songs H7440 and everlasting H5769 joy H8057 upon their heads: H7218 they shall obtain H5381 (HiphImpf) joy H8057 and gladness, H8342 and sorrow H3015 and sighing H585 shall flee away.
