Isaiah - Chapter 35 | Good News Translation

  • 1. The desert will rejoice, and flowers will bloom in the wastelands.
  • 2. The desert will sing and shout for joy; it will be as beautiful as the Lebanon Mountains and as fertile as the fields of Carmel and Sharon. Everyone will see the LORD's splendor, see his greatness and power.
  • 3. Give strength to hands that are tired and to knees that tremble with weakness.
  • 4. Tell everyone who is discouraged, "Be strong and don't be afraid! God is coming to your rescue, coming to punish your enemies."
  • 5. The blind will be able to see, and the deaf will hear.
  • 6. The lame will leap and dance, and those who cannot speak will shout for joy. Streams of water will flow through the desert;
  • 7. the burning sand will become a lake, and dry land will be filled with springs. Where jackals used to live, marsh grass and reeds will grow.
  • 8. There will be a highway there, called "The Road of Holiness." No sinner will ever travel that road; no fools will mislead those who follow it.
  • 9. No lions will be there; no fierce animals will pass that way. Those whom the LORD has rescued will travel home by that road.
  • 10. They will reach Jerusalem with gladness, singing and shouting for joy. They will be happy forever, forever free from sorrow and grief.
