1 ​The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad;
    the desert shall rejoice and blossom;
like the crocus 2 it shall blossom abundantly
    and rejoice with joy and shouting.
The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
    the majesty of Carmel and Sharon.
They shall see the glory of the Lord,
    the majesty of our God.
