¹⁶ I will ^(A)lead the blind by a way they do not know,
In paths they do not know I will guide them.
I will ^(B)make darkness into light before them
And ^(C)rugged places into plains.
These are the things I will do,
And I will ^(D)not forsake them.”

⁴ It will no longer be said to you, “^[a](A)Forsaken,”
Nor to your land will it any longer be said, “^[b]Desolate”;
But you will be called, “^[c]My delight is in her,”
And your land, “^[d](B)Married”;
For ^(C)Yahweh takes pleasure in you,
And to Him your land will be married.
