Isaiah 41:17-19

New Century Version

¹⁷ “The poor and needy people look for water,
    but they can’t find any.
    Their tongues are dry with thirst.
But I, the Lord, will answer their prayers;
    I, the God of Israel, will not leave them to die.
¹⁸ I will make rivers flow on the dry hills
    and springs flow through the valleys.
I will change the desert into a lake of water
    and the dry land into fountains of water.
¹⁹ I will make trees grow in the desert—
    cedars, acacia, myrtle, and olive trees.
I will put pine, fir, and cypress trees
    growing together in the desert.
