⁶ Then will the lame^(A) leap like a deer,^(B)
    and the mute tongue^(C) shout for joy.^(D)
Water will gush forth in the wilderness
    and streams^(E) in the desert.
⁷ The burning sand will become a pool,
    the thirsty ground^(F) bubbling springs.^(G)
In the haunts where jackals^(H) once lay,
    grass and reeds^(I) and papyrus will grow.

⁸ And a highway^(J) will be there;
    it will be called the Way of Holiness;^(K)
    it will be for those who walk on that Way.
The unclean^(L) will not journey on it;
    wicked fools will not go about on it.
