Isaiah 35:6-10 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

6. Then the lame shall leap like a stag,and the mute tongue sing for joy.For waters will burst forth in the wilderness,and streams in the Arabah.

7. The burning sands will become pools,and the thirsty ground, springs of water;The abode where jackals crouchwill be a marsh for the reed and papyrus.

8. A highway will be there,called the holy way;No one unclean may pass over it,but it will be for his people;no traveler, not even fools, shall go astray on it.

9. No lion shall be there,nor any beast of prey approach,nor be found.But there the redeemed shall walk,

10. And the ransomed of the Lord shall return,and enter Zion singing,crowned with everlasting joy;They meet with joy and gladness,sorrow and mourning flee away.
