Isaiah

曠野和乾旱之地必然歡喜；沙漠也必快樂；又像玫瑰開花，

The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.

必開花繁盛，樂上加樂，而且歡呼。利巴嫩的榮耀，並迦密與沙崙的華美，必賜給他。人必看見耶和華的榮耀，我們神的華美。

It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, {and} the excellency of our God.

你們要使軟弱的手堅壯，無力的膝穩固。

Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.

對膽怯的人說：你們要剛強，不要懼怕。看哪，你們的神必來報仇，必來施行極大的報應；他必來拯救你們。

Say to them {that are} of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come {with} vengeance, {even} God {with} a recompence; he will come and save you. {fearful: Heb. hasty}

那時，瞎子的眼必睜開；聾子的耳必開通。

Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.

那時，瘸子必跳躍像鹿；啞巴的舌頭必能歌唱。在曠野必有水發出；在沙漠必有河湧流。

Then shall the lame {man} leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.

發光的沙（或譯：蜃樓）要變為水池；乾渴之地要變為泉源。在野狗躺臥之處，必有青草、蘆葦，和蒲草。

And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, {shall be} grass with reeds and rushes. {grass...: or, a court for reeds, etc}

在那裡必有一條大道，稱為聖路。污穢人不得經過，必專為贖民行走；行路的人雖愚昧，也不致失迷。

And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it {shall be} for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err {therein}. {but...: or, for he shall be with them}

在那裡必沒有獅子，猛獸也不登這路；在那裡都遇不見，只有贖民在那裡行走。

No lion shall be there, nor {any} ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk {there}:

並且耶和華救贖的民必歸回，歌唱來到錫安；永樂必歸到他們的頭上；他們必得著歡喜快樂，憂愁歎息盡都逃避。

And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
