Isaiah 43:16-21
New International Version
16 This is what the Lord says—
he who made a way through the sea,
a path through the mighty waters,(A)
17 who drew out(B) the chariots and horses,(C)
the army and reinforcements together,(D)
and they lay(E) there, never to rise again,
extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:(F)
18 “Forget the former things;(G)
do not dwell on the past.
19 See, I am doing a new thing!(H)
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness(I)
and streams in the wasteland.(J)
20 The wild animals(K) honor me,
the jackals(L) and the owls,
because I provide water(M) in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland,
to give drink to my people, my chosen,
21 the people I formed(N) for myself(O)
that they may proclaim my praise.(P)
Isaiah 43:16-21
King James Version
16 Thus saith the Lord, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
17 Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.
18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.

Psalm 126
New International Version
Psalm 126
A song of ascents.
1 When the Lord restored(A) the fortunes of[a] Zion,
we were like those who dreamed.[b]
2 Our mouths were filled with laughter,(B)
our tongues with songs of joy.(C)
Then it was said among the nations,
“The Lord has done great things(D) for them.”
3 The Lord has done great things(E) for us,
and we are filled with joy.(F)

Psalm 126
King James Version
126 When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them.
3 The Lord hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.
4 Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as the streams in the south.
5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
