1. The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.
2. It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing; the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon: they shall see the glory of the LORD, the excellency of our God.
3. Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.
