Rivers in the Badlands

Isaiah 43:16-19

This is what the Lord says:

He who makes a way through the sea and a path through the mighty waters, who brings out the chariot and the horse, the army and the mighty man (they will lie down together and not rise again; they have been extinguished and gone out like a wick): Do not call to mind the former things, or consider things of the past.

Behold, I am doing something new, now it will spring up; will you not be aware of it?

I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.
