Isaiah 41:16-18

New Catholic Bible

¹⁶ You will winnow them,
    the wind will carry them away,
    and the gale will scatter them.
Then you will rejoice in the Lord
    and glory in the Holy One of Israel.
¹⁷ When the poor and needy search for water
    and there is none,
    and their tongues are parched with thirst,
I the Lord will come to their aid;
    I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them.
¹⁸ I will open up rivers on the barren heights
    and fountains in the midst of valleys.
I will turn the wilderness into a lake
    and the dry land into springs of water.
