“Forget about what’s happened;

don’t keep going over old history.

Be alert, be present. I’m about to do something brand-new.

It’s bursting out! Don’t you see it?

There it is! I’m making a road through the desert,

rivers in the badlands.

I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.

Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness,

rivers in the desert.

Neither consider the things of old.
