1 The desert and the parched land will be glad;

the wilderness will rejoice and blossom.

Like the crocus,

1 The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad;

the desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus;

1 The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them;

And the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.

1 Even the wilderness and desert will be glad in those days.

The wasteland will rejoice and blossom with spring crocuses.

1 The wilderness and the wasteland shall be glad for them,

And the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose;

1 The desert and dry land will become happy;

the desert will be glad and will produce flowers.

Like a flower,

1 The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.

1 The wilderness and the dry land shall be gladdened; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.

1 The desert and the dry land will be glad, 

and the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. 

1 The wilderness and the dry land will be glad;

the desert will rejoice and blossom like a rose.

1 The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad,

the desert shall rejoice and blossom;

like the crocus

1 Wilderness and dry land shall be glad,

and desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus.

1 The desert and the dry ground will be glad.

The dry places will be full of joy.

Flowers will grow there.

Like the first crocus in the spring,
