35:6 Then the lame will leap like a deer,
the mute tongue will shout for joy;
for water will flow 1 in the desert,
streams in the wilderness. 2
35:7 The dry soil will become a pool of water,
the parched ground springs of water.
Where jackals once lived and sprawled out,
grass, reeds, and papyrus will grow.
35:8 A thoroughfare will be there –
it will be called the Way of Holiness. 3
The unclean will not travel on it;
it is reserved for those authorized to use it 4 –
fools 5 will not stray into it.
