18. Don’t remember the prior things;don’t ponder ancient history.
19. Look! I’m doing a new thing;now it sprouts up; don’t you recognize it?I’m making a way in the desert,paths in the wilderness.
20. The beasts of the field,the jackals and ostriches, will honor me,because I have put water in the desertand streams in the wildernessto give water to my people,my chosen ones,
21. this people whom I formed for myself,who will recount my praise.
