10 Sing to Adonai a new song, His praise from the end of the earth, you who go down to the sea with all its fullness, islands and their inhabitants.
11 Let the desert and its cities exult— the villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the dwellers of Sela sing for joy. Let them shout for joy from the top of the mountains.
12 Let them give glory to Adonai and declare His praise in the islands.
13 Adonai goes out as a mighty one. He stirs up His zeal like a man of war. He will shout, yes, raise a war cry! He will prevail over His enemies.
14 “I have held My peace a long time, I have been still and restrained Myself. Now like a woman in labor I groan, gasping and panting at once.
15 I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their vegetation. I will turn the rivers into islands, and dry up the pools.
16 I will bring the blind by a way they do not know. in paths they have not known, I will guide them. I will turn darkness before them to light and the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do, and I will not forsake them.
