Isaiah 51:3
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
3 Yes, the Lord shall comfort Zion,
shall comfort all her ruins;
Her wilderness he shall make like Eden,
her wasteland like the garden of the Lord;
Joy and gladness shall be found in her,
thanksgiving and the sound of song.
Ezekiel 31:9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
9 I made it beautiful
with abundant foliage,
So that all the trees in Eden
were envious of it.[a]
