Isaiah 35:5-7
Easy-to-Read Version
Isaiah 35:5-7
Easy-to-Read Version
5 Then the eyes of the blind will be opened so that they can see, and the ears of the deaf will be opened so that they can hear. 6 Crippled people will dance like deer, and those who cannot speak now will use their voices to sing happy songs. This will happen when springs of water begin to flow in the dry desert. 7 Now people see mirages[a] that look like water, but then there will be real pools of water. There will be wells in the dry land where water flows from the ground. Tall water plants will grow where wild animals once ruled.

Isaiah 35:5-7
New International Version
5 Then will the eyes of the blind be opened(A)
and the ears of the deaf(B) unstopped.
6 Then will the lame(C) leap like a deer,(D)
and the mute tongue(E) shout for joy.(F)
Water will gush forth in the wilderness
and streams(G) in the desert.
7 The burning sand will become a pool,
the thirsty ground(H) bubbling springs.(I)
In the haunts where jackals(J) once lay,
grass and reeds(K) and papyrus will grow.
