Isaiah 35:7-9
Easy-to-Read Version
7 Now people see mirages[a] that look like water, but then there will be real pools of water. There will be wells in the dry land where water flows from the ground. Tall water plants will grow where wild animals once ruled.
8 There will be a road there. This highway will be called “The Holy Road.” Evil people will not be allowed to walk on that road. No fools[b] will walk on it. Only good people will walk there. 9 There will be no dangers on that road. There will be no lions there to hurt people or any dangerous animals on it. That road will be for the people God saves.

Isaiah 35:7-9
New International Version
7 The burning sand will become a pool,
the thirsty ground(A) bubbling springs.(B)
In the haunts where jackals(C) once lay,
grass and reeds(D) and papyrus will grow.
8 And a highway(E) will be there;
it will be called the Way of Holiness;(F)
it will be for those who walk on that Way.
The unclean(G) will not journey on it;
wicked fools will not go about on it.
9 No lion(H) will be there,
nor any ravenous beast;(I)
they will not be found there.
But only the redeemed(J) will walk there,
