Isaiah 35 is the thirty-fifth chapter of the Book of Isaiah in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. This book contains the prophecies attributed to the prophet Isaiah, and is a part of the Book of the Prophets.[1][2] This is the final chapter in a group (chapters 28-35) which the Jerusalem Bible calls a collection of "poems on Israel and Judah".[3] The New King James Version entitles this chapter "The Future Glory of Zion".[4]

Some most ancient manuscripts containing this chapter in Hebrew language:

Ancient translations in Koine Greek:

Verse 5

Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened,
and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.[6]

Verse 6

King James Version:

Then shall the lame man leap as an hart,
and the tongue of the dumb sing:
for in the wilderness shall waters break out,
and streams in the desert.[7]

Verse 10

New King James Version:

The ransomed of the Lord shall return,
And come to Zion with singing,
With everlasting joy on their heads.
They shall obtain joy and gladness,
And sorrow and sighing shall flee away.[8]

The prophecies of Proto-Isaiah end here, chapters 36 to 39 being an "historical appendix closing the first division of Isaiah's prophecies ... added to make the parts of these referring to Assyria more intelligible".[9]
