¹⁶ Thus says the Lord,
    who makes a way in the sea
    and a path in the mighty waters,
¹⁷ who brings forth the chariot and horse,
    the army and the mighty men
(they shall lie down together, they shall not rise;
    they are extinguished, they are quenched like a wick):
¹⁸ Do not remember the former things
    nor consider the things of old.
¹⁹ See, I will do a new thing,
    now it shall spring forth; shall you not be aware of it?
I will even make a way in the wilderness,
    and rivers in the desert.
²⁰ The beast of the field shall honor Me,
    the jackals and the owls,
because I give waters in the wilderness,
    and rivers in the desert,
to give drink to My people, My chosen ones.
²¹     This people I have formed for Myself;
    they shall declare My praise.
