Isaiah
Isaiah 35:6–7
6Then the lame will leap like a deer
and the mute tongue will shout for joy.
For waters will gush forth in the wilderness,
and streams in the desert.
7The parched ground will become a pool,
the thirsty land springs of water.
In the haunt where jackalsb once lay,
there will be grass and reeds and papyrus.
