God Will Comfort His People
35 The ·desert [wilderness] and dry land will ·become happy [rejoice];
the ·desert [arid plain; or Arabah] will be glad and will ·produce flowers [blossom; bloom].
Like a ·flower [lily; crocus], 2 it will have many blooms.
It will ·show its happiness [joyfully rejoice], as if it were ·shouting [or singing] with joy.
It will be ·beautiful like the forest [L given the glory] of Lebanon,
·as beautiful as Mount Carmel and the Plain of Sharon [L the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; 33:9].
·Everyone [L They] will see the glory of the Lord [C his manifest presence]
and the splendor of our God.
3 Make the weak hands strong
and the weak knees steady.
4 Say to people who are ·frightened [anxious; L hasty of heart],
“Be strong. Don’t be afraid.
Look, your God will come,
·and he will punish your enemies [L …with vengeance].
·He will make them pay for the wrongs they did […with the retribution of God],
but he will save you.”
5 Then the blind ·people [L eyes] will see again,
and the ·deaf [L deaf ears] will hear [Matt. 11:5; Luke 7:22].
6 ·Crippled people [Then the lame] will ·jump [leap] like deer,
and ·those who can’t talk now [L the tongue of the mute] will shout with joy.
Water will ·flow [burst forth] in the ·desert [wilderness],
and streams will flow in the ·dry land [arid plain; or Arabah].
7 The ·burning desert [scorched ground; parched earth] will have pools of water,
and the ·dry [parched; thirsty] ground will have springs.
Where ·wild dogs [jackals] once ·lived [lived and laid down],
grass and ·water plants [reeds and rushes/papyrus] will grow.
8 A road will be there;
this highway will be called “The ·Road to Being Holy [L Way/Highway of Holiness].”
·Evil people [The unclean; C ritually] will not be allowed to walk on that road;
only good people [C those who walk in the Way of Holiness] will walk on it.
No fools [C the morally corrupt who disregard God] will go on it.
9 No lions will be there,
nor will ·dangerous animals [ravenous/violent beasts] be on that road.
They will not be found there.
That road will be for the ·people God saves [redeemed];
10 the people the Lord has ·freed [ransomed] will return there.
They will enter ·Jerusalem [L Zion; C the location of the Temple] with ·joy [or singing; shouting],
and ·their happiness will last forever [L eternal joy will be upon their head; C as a crown].
Their gladness and joy will ·fill them completely [overtake/come upon them],
and sorrow and ·sadness [sighing] will ·go far [flee] away.

得救者的福樂
35 曠野和乾旱之地必歡喜；
沙漠要快樂，
又像番紅花一般開花，
2 必茂盛地開花，
大大快樂，並且歡呼。
黎巴嫩的榮耀、
迦密和沙崙的華美也賜給它；
人們必看見耶和華的榮耀、
我們 神的華美。
3 你們要堅固無力的手，穩固搖動的膝。
4 又對那些憂心的人說：
“你們要剛強，不要懼怕。
看哪！你們的 神，他要來報仇，
來施行報應，
他必來拯救你們。”
5 那時，瞎子的眼必打開，
聾子的耳必暢通。
6 那時，瘸子必像鹿一般跳躍，
啞巴的舌頭必大聲歡呼；
曠野必湧出大水，
沙漠必流出江河。
7 灼熱的沙地必變為水池，
乾旱之地必變成泉源；
在野狗的住處，就是牠們躺臥之處，
必成為青草、蘆葦和蒲草生長的地方。
8 那裡必有一條大路，
要稱為“聖路”；
不潔淨的人不能經過，
那是為那些行走正路的人預備的；
愚昧的人不會在路上留連。
9 那裡必沒有獅子，
猛獸也不會上去，
在那裡必遇不見牠們；只有蒙救贖的人在那裡行走。
10 蒙耶和華贖回的人必歸回，
必歡呼地來到錫安；
永遠的喜樂必臨到他們的頭上；
他們必得著歡喜和快樂，
憂愁和歎息都必逃跑了。

Joy of the Redeemed
35 The desert(A) and the parched land will be glad;
the wilderness will rejoice and blossom.(B)
Like the crocus,(C) 2 it will burst into bloom;
it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy.(D)
The glory of Lebanon(E) will be given to it,
the splendor of Carmel(F) and Sharon;(G)
they will see the glory(H) of the Lord,
the splendor of our God.(I)
3 Strengthen the feeble hands,
steady the knees(J) that give way;
4 say(K) to those with fearful hearts,(L)
“Be strong, do not fear;(M)
your God will come,(N)
he will come with vengeance;(O)
with divine retribution
he will come to save(P) you.”
5 Then will the eyes of the blind be opened(Q)
and the ears of the deaf(R) unstopped.
6 Then will the lame(S) leap like a deer,(T)
and the mute tongue(U) shout for joy.(V)
Water will gush forth in the wilderness
and streams(W) in the desert.
7 The burning sand will become a pool,
the thirsty ground(X) bubbling springs.(Y)
In the haunts where jackals(Z) once lay,
grass and reeds(AA) and papyrus will grow.
8 And a highway(AB) will be there;
it will be called the Way of Holiness;(AC)
it will be for those who walk on that Way.
The unclean(AD) will not journey on it;
wicked fools will not go about on it.
9 No lion(AE) will be there,
nor any ravenous beast;(AF)
they will not be found there.
But only the redeemed(AG) will walk there,
10 and those the Lord has rescued(AH) will return.
They will enter Zion with singing;(AI)
everlasting joy(AJ) will crown their heads.
Gladness(AK) and joy will overtake them,
and sorrow and sighing will flee away.(AL)
