Isaiah 41:17-19

Living Bible

¹⁷ When the poor and needy seek water and there is none, and their tongues are parched from thirst, then I will answer when they cry to me. I, Israel’s God, will never forsake them. ¹⁸ I will open up rivers for them on high plateaus! I will give them fountains of water in the valleys! In the deserts will be pools of water, and rivers fed by springs shall flow across the dry, parched ground. ¹⁹ I will plant trees—cedars, myrtle, olive trees, cypress, fir, and pine—on barren land.
