12 Yes, you will go out with joy,
you will be led forth in peace.
As you come, the mountains and hills

myrtles will grow instead of briars.

as an eternal, imperishable sign.

    and be led forth in peace;(B)
the mountains and hills
    will burst into song(C) before you,
and all the trees(D) of the field
    will clap their hands.(E)
13 Instead of the thornbush will grow the juniper,
    and instead of briers(F) the myrtle(G) will grow.

    for an everlasting sign,
    that will endure forever.”
