CHAP. XXXV.

1 The ioyfull flourishing of Christes Kingdome. 3 The weake are incouraged by the vertues and priuiledges of the Gospel.

¹ The wildernesse and the solitarie place shall be glad for them: and the desert shall reioyce and blossome as the rose.

² It shall blossome abundantly, and reioyce euen with ioy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shal be giuen vnto it, the excellencie of Carmel and Sharon: they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the excellencie of our God.

³ ¶ Strengthen yee the weake hands, and confirme the feeble knees.³

⁴ Say to them that are of a fearefull heart; Be strong, feare not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, euen God with a recompence, he will come and saue you.⁴

⁵ Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the eares of the deafe shalbe vnstopped.⁵

⁶ Then shall the lame man leape as an Hart, and the tongue of the dumbe sing: for in the wildernesse shall waters breake out, and streames in the desert.⁶

⁷ And the parched ground shall become a poole, and the thirstie land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shalbe grasse with reeds and rushes.⁷

⁸ And an high way shalbe there, and away, and it shall be called the way of holinesse, the vncleane shall not passe ouer it, but it shall be for those: the wayfaringmen, though fooles, shall not erre therein.⁸

⁹ No lyon shalbe there; nor any rauenous beast shall goe vp thereon, it shall not be found there: but the redeemed shall walke there.

¹⁰ And the ransomed of the Lord shall returne and come to Zion with songs, and euerlasting ioy vpon their heads: they shall obtaine ioy and gladnesse, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.¹⁰
