Isaiah

Isaiah 35:8–9

⁸And there will be a highway

called the Way of Holiness.

The unclean will not travel it —

only those who walk in the Way —

and fools will not stray onto it.

⁹No lion will be there,

and no vicious beast will go up on it.

Such will not be found there,

but the redeemed will walk upon it.
