Isaiah 35

NASB

Isaiah 35

Zion’s Happy Future

^{Tools
1}

The ^(A)wilderness and the desert will be glad,
And the ^(a)^(B)Arabah will rejoice and blossom;
Like the crocus

^{Tools
2}

It will ^(C)blossom profusely
And ^(D)rejoice with rejoicing and shout of joy.
The ^(E)glory of Lebanon will be given to it,
The majesty of ^(F)Carmel and Sharon.
They will see the ^(G)glory of the Lord,
The majesty of our God.

^{Tools
3}

^(H)Encourage the ^(b)exhausted, and strengthen the ^(c)feeble.

^{Tools
4}

Say to those with ^(I)anxious heart,
“Take courage, fear not.
Behold, your God will come with ^(J)vengeance;
The ^(K)recompense of God will come,
But He will ^(L)save you.”

^{Tools
5}

Then the ^(M)eyes of the blind will be opened
And the ears of the deaf will be unstopped.

^{Tools
6}

Then the ^(N)lame will leap like a deer,
And the ^(O)tongue of the mute will shout for joy.
For waters will break forth in the ^(P)wilderness
And streams in the ^(d)Arabah.

^{Tools
7}

The ^(e)scorched land will become a pool
And the thirsty ground ^(Q)springs of water;
In the ^(R)haunt of jackals, its resting place,
Grass becomes reeds and rushes.

^{Tools
8}

^(S)A highway will be there, ^(T)a roadway,
And it will be called the Highway of ^(U)Holiness.
The unclean will not travel on it,
But it will be for him who walks that way,
And ^(V)fools will not wander on it.

^{Tools
9}

No ^(W)lion will be there,
Nor will any vicious beast go up on it;
^(f)These will not be found there.
But ^(X)the redeemed will walk there,

^{Tools
10}

And ^(Y)the ransomed of the Lord will return
And come with joyful shouting to Zion,
With everlasting joy upon their heads.
They will ^(g)find gladness and joy,
And ^(Z)sorrow and sighing will flee away.
