⁴ Restore our fortunes, Lord,
    as streams renew the desert.

⁴ Now restore us again, O God of our salvation.
    Put aside your anger against us once more.

¹⁹ For I am about to do something new.
    See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?
I will make a pathway through the wilderness.
    I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.

¹⁸ I will open up rivers for them on the high plateaus.
    I will give them fountains of water in the valleys.
I will fill the desert with pools of water.
    Rivers fed by springs will flow across the parched ground.
