And there shall be a path and a way, and the way shall be called [a]holy: the polluted shall not pass by it: for [b]he shall be with them, and walk in the way, and the fools shall not err.

There shall be [c]no lion, nor noisome beasts shall ascend by it, neither shall they be found there, that the redeemed may walk.

10 Therefore the [d]redeemed of the Lord shall return and come to Zion with praise: and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
