Yesaya 35:7

35:7 The dry soil will become a pool of water,

the parched ground springs of water.

Where jackals once lived and sprawled out,

grass, reeds, and papyrus will grow.

Yesaya 49:10

49:10 They will not be hungry or thirsty;

the sun’s oppressive heat will not beat down on them, ¹ 

for one who has compassion on them will guide them;

he will lead them to springs of water.

Yesaya 58:11

58:11 The Lord will continually lead you;

he will feed you even in parched regions. ² 

He will give you renewed strength, ³ 

and you will be like a well-watered garden,

like a spring that continually produces water.

[49:10]  ¹ tn Heb “and the heat and the sun will not strike them.” In Isa 35:7, its only other occurrence in the OT, שָׁרָב (sharav) stands parallel to “parched ground” and in contrast to “pool.” In later Hebrew and Aramaic it refers to “dry heat, heat of the sun” (Jastrow 1627 s.v.). Here it likely has this nuance and forms a hendiadys with “sun.”

[58:11]  ² tn Heb “he will satisfy in parched regions your appetite.”

[58:11]  ³ tn Heb “and your bones he will strengthen.”
