Isaiah 43:18-20

New International Reader's Version

¹⁸ “Forget the things that happened in the past.
    Do not keep on thinking about them.
¹⁹ I am about to do something new.
    It is beginning to happen even now.
    Don’t you see it coming?
I am going to make a way for you to go through the desert.
    I will make streams of water in the dry and empty land.
²⁰ Even wild dogs and owls honor me.
    That is because I provide water in the desert
    for my people to drink.
I cause streams to flow in the dry and empty land
    for my chosen ones.
