Isaiah 43:16-19 (NRSV)16 Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, a path in the mighty waters,17 who brings out chariot and horse, army and warrior;they lie down; they cannot rise; they are extinguished, quenched like a wick:18 Do not remember the former things or consider the things of old.19 I am about to do a new thing; now it springs forth; do you not perceive it?I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.
