    and the thirsty ground, springs of water;
The abode where jackals crouch
    will be a marsh for the reed and papyrus.
A highway will be there,

No one unclean may pass over it,
    but it will be for his people;

    nor any beast of prey approach,
    nor be found.
    But there the redeemed shall walk,(B)

But only the redeemed(J) will walk there,
