Isaiah 29:17-19
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Redemption[a]
17 Surely, in a very little while,
Lebanon shall be changed into an orchard,
and the orchard be considered a forest!(A)
18 On that day the deaf shall hear
the words of a scroll;
And out of gloom and darkness,
the eyes of the blind shall see.(B)
19 The lowly shall again find joy in the Lord,
the poorest rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.(C)
