Isaiah 35
35
CHAPTER 35
1The forsaken Judah and without a way shall be glad, and [the] wilder-ness shall make full out joy, and shall flower as a lily.
2It burgeoning shall burgeon, and it glad and praising shall make full out joy. The glory of Lebanon is given to it, the fairness of Carmel and of Sharon; they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the fairness of our God.
3Comfort ye [the] benumbed hands, and make ye strong [the] feeble knees.
4Say ye, Men of little comfort, be ye comforted, and do not ye dread; lo! our God shall bring the vengeance of yielding, God himself shall come, and shall save us.
5Then the eyes of blind men shall be opened, and the ears of deaf men shall be open[ed].
6Then a crooked man shall skip as an hart, and the tongue of dumb men shall be opened; for why waters be broken out in desert, and streams in wilderness.
7And that that was dry, is made into a pond, and the thirsty is made into wells of waters. [The] Greenness of [the] reed, and of [the] spire shall grow in [the] dens, in which dwelled dragons before.
8And a path and a way shall be there, and it shall be called an holy way, he that is defouled shall not pass thereby; and this shall be a straight [right] way to you, so that fools err not thereby.
9A lion shall not be there, and an evil beast shall not ascend [or go up] thereby, neither shall be found there. And they shall go, that be delivered;
10and again-bought of the Lord; and they shall be converted, and shall come into Zion with praising; and everlasting gladness shall be on the heads of them; they shall have joy and gladness, and sorrow and wailing shall flee away.

Isaiah 35
35
The Ransomed Return to Zion
1Wilderness and dry land shall be glad,#The Hebrew has an extra “them,” probably from an accidental of the first letter of the next word
and desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus.
2It shall blossom abundantly,
and it shall rejoice indeed with rejoicing and exulting.
The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
the majesty of Carmel and Sharon.
They are the ones who#Literally “they” shall see the glory of Yahweh,
the majesty of our God.
3Strengthen the weak hands
and make the staggering knees firm.
4Say to those who are hasty of heart,
“Be strong; you must not fear!
Look! your God will come with vengeance,
with divine retribution.#Literally “the retribution of gods”
He is the one who#Literally “he” will come and save you.”
5Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened,
and the ears of the deaf shall be opened.
6Then the lame shall leap like the deer,
and the tongue of the dumb shall sing for joy,
for waters shall break forth in the wilderness
and streams in the desert.
7And the parched ground shall become a pool,
and the thirsty ground springs of water.
Her resting place is in a settlement of jackals;
the grass shall become like reeds#Hebrew “reed” and rushes.#Hebrew “rush”
8And a highway shall be there, and a way,
and it shall be called the way of holiness.
The unclean shall not travel through it,
but#Or “and” it is for them, he who walks on the way;
and fools shall not wander about.
9No lion shall be there,
and no ferocious wild beast shall go up it.
It shall not be found there,
but#Or “and” the redeemed shall walk there.
10And the ransomed of Yahweh shall return,
and they shall come to Zion with rejoicing.
And everlasting joy shall be on their head;
joy and gladness shall overtake them,
and sorrow and sighing shall flee.
