Isaiah 55:12-13

Easy-to-Read Version

¹² “So you will go out from there with joy.
    You will be led out in peace.
When you come to the mountains and hills, they will begin singing.
    All the trees in the fields will clap their hands.
¹³ Large cypress trees will grow where there were thornbushes.
    Myrtle trees will grow where there were weeds.
All this will happen to make the Lord known,
    to be a permanent reminder of his goodness and power.”
