Yesaya 12:3

12:3 Joyfully you will draw water

from the springs of deliverance. ¹ 

Yesaya 24:19

24:19 The earth is broken in pieces,

the earth is ripped to shreds,

the earth shakes violently. ² 

Yesaya 58:11

58:11 The Lord will continually lead you;

he will feed you even in parched regions. ³ 

He will give you renewed strength, ⁴ 

and you will be like a well-watered garden,

like a spring that continually produces water.

[12:3]  ¹ tn Or “salvation” (so many English versions, e.g., KJV, NAB, NIV, NRSV, NLT); CEV “victory.”

[12:3]  sn Water is here a metaphor for renewed life; the springs symbolize the restoration of God’s favor.

[24:19]  ² tn Once more repetition is used to draw attention to a statement. In the Hebrew text each lines ends with אֶרֶץ (’erets, “earth”). Each line also uses a Hitpolel verb form from a geminate root preceded by an emphatic infinitive absolute.

[58:11]  ³ tn Heb “he will satisfy in parched regions your appetite.”

[58:11]  ⁴ tn Heb “and your bones he will strengthen.”
