16 Thus says the Lord,who makes a way in the seaand a path in the mighty waters,
17 who brings forth the chariot and horse,the army and the mighty men(they shall lie down together, they shall not rise;they are extinguished, they are quenched like a wick):
18 Do not remember the former thingsnor consider the things of old.
19 See, I will do a new thing,now it shall spring forth; shall you not be aware of it?I will even make a way in the wilderness,and rivers in the desert.
20 The beast of the field shall honor Me,the jackals and the owls,because I give waters in the wilderness,and rivers in the desert,to give drink to My people, My chosen ones.
21 This people I have formed for Myself;they shall declare My praise.
22 But you have not called upon Me, O Jacob;but you have been weary of Me, O Israel.
