Yesaya 41:18

41:18 I will make streams flow down the slopes

and produce springs in the middle of the valleys.

I will turn the desert into a pool of water

and the arid land into springs.

Yesaya 43:19

43:19 “Look, I am about to do something new.

Now it begins to happen! ¹  Do you not recognize ²  it?

Yes, I will make a road in the desert

and paths ³  in the wilderness.
