| 1 | The desert and the wildernes shall reioyce: and the waste ground shalbe glad and florish as the rose. | The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad; the desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus; | The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, | |
| 2 | It shall florish abundantly and shal greatly reioyce also and ioye: the glory of Lebanon shalbe giuen vnto it: the beautie of Carmel, and of Sharon, they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the excellencie of our God. | it shall blossom abundantly and rejoice with joy and singing. The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the majesty of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the LORD, the majesty of our God. | it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; they will see the glory of the LORD, the splendor of our God. | |
| 3 | Strengthen the weake handes, and comfort the feeble knees. | Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees. | Strengthen the feeble hands, steady the knees that give way; | |
| 4 | Say vnto them that are fearefull, Bee you strong, feare not: beholde, your God commeth with vengeance: euen God with a recompense, he will come and saue you. | Say to those who have an anxious heart, “Be strong; fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you.” | say to those with fearful hearts, “Be strong, do not fear; your God will come, he will come with vengeance; with divine retribution he will come to save you.” | |
| 5 | Then shall the eyes of the blinde be lightened, and the eares of the deafe be opened. | Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf unstopped; | Then will the eyes of the blind be opened and the ears of the deaf unstopped. | |
| 6 | Then shal ye lame man leape as an hart, and the dumme mans tongue shal sing: for in the wildernes shal waters breake out, & riuers in ye desert. | then shall the lame man leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute sing for joy. For waters break forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert; | Then will the lame leap like a deer, and the mute tongue shout for joy. Water will gush forth in the wilderness and streams in the desert. | |
| 7 | And the dry ground shalbe as a poole, and the thirstie (as springs of water in the habitation of dragons: where they lay) shall be a place for reedes and rushes. | the burning sand shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water; in the haunt of jackals, where they lie down, the grass shall become reeds and rushes. | The burning sand will become a pool, the thirsty ground bubbling springs. In the haunts where jackals once lay, grass and reeds and papyrus will grow. | |
| 8 | And there shalbe a path and a way, and the way shalbe called holy: the polluted shall not passe by it: for he shalbe with them, and walke in the way, and the fooles shall not erre. | And a highway shall be there, and it shall be called the Way of Holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it. It shall belong to those who walk on the way; even if they are fools, they shall not go astray. | And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way. The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it. | |
| 9 | There shall be no lyon, nor noysome beastes shall ascend by it, neither shall they be found there, that the redeemed may walke. | No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it; they shall not be found there, but the redeemed shall walk there. | No lion will be there, nor any ravenous beast; they will not be found there. But only the redeemed will walk there, | |
| 10 | Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall returne and come to Zion with prayse: and euerlasting ioy shall bee vpon their heads: they shall obteine ioye and gladnesse, and sorow and mourning shall flee away. | And the ransomed of the LORD shall return and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. | and those the LORD has rescued will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away. | |
