Isaiah 43:19–21

19 Look, I am about to do something new;ag

even now it is coming. Do you not see it?

Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness,ah

riversF in the desert.

20 Wild animals—

jackals and ostriches—will honor me,

because I provide water in the wilderness,

and rivers in the desert,a

to give drink to my chosen people.

21 The people I formed for myself

will declare my praise.b
