(A)the burning sand shall become a pool,
    and the thirsty ground springs of water;
in the haunt of (B)jackals, where they lie down,
    the grass shall become reeds and rushes.

(C)And a highway shall be there,
    and it shall be called the Way of Holiness;
(D)the unclean shall not pass over it.
    It shall belong to those who walk on the way;
    even if they are fools, they shall not go astray.[a]
No lion shall be there,
    nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it;
they shall not be found there,
    but the redeemed shall walk there.

No lion(H) will be there,
    nor any ravenous beast;(I)
    they will not be found there.
But only the redeemed(J) will walk there,
