1 Hasta los páramos y el desierto se regocijarán en aquellos días. Incluso, el desierto florecerá. 2 Sí, habrá abundancia de flores, cánticos y júbilo. Los desiertos se volverán verdes como los montes del Líbano, hermosos como los pastos del monte Carmelo y los prados de Sarón, porque allí exhibirá el Señor su gloria, se apreciará la excelencia de nuestro Dios. 3 Alegra con estas noticias a todos los descorazonados, 4 alienta a los atemorizados. Diles: «Sean valientes, no teman, porque su Dios viene para destruir a sus enemigos, viene a salvarlos». 5 Y cuando él venga abrirá los ojos de los ciegos y los oídos de los sordos, 6 los cojos saltarán como el ciervo y los mudos gritarán y cantarán. Entonces brotarán fuentes en los páramos y arroyos en el desierto, 7 los terrenos resecos se convertirán en estanques, con arroyos en la tierra sedienta. Donde habitaban los chacales del desierto, habrá carrizos y cañas. 8 Y un gran camino atravesará lo que fue desierto, se le llamará «Camino Santo». Ningún hombre de corazón perverso podrá andar por él. Por él andará Dios con ustedes; ni el más torpe se extraviará. 9 No habrá en él leones en acecho, ni algún otro peligro, solamente los salvados pasarán por allí. 10 Estos redimidos del Señor irán por ese camino a su hogar, a Sion, entonando cánticos de júbilo eterno. Nunca más habrá para ellos dolor ni suspiros. Allí sólo habrá felicidad y gozo.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
There are these words: "At His coming the lame shall leap as an hart, and the tongue of the stammerer shall be clear speaking: the blind shall see, and the lepers shall be cleansed; and the dead shall rise, and walk about." And that He did those things, you can learn from the Acts of Pontius Pilate.
Those, again, who declare that at His coming "the lame man shall leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall [speak] plainly, and the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall hear," and that "the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees, shall be strengthened," and that "the dead …
But of our state there, no such word at all is spoken, but all the contrary; that "grief and sorrow and sighing have fled away." And that "men shall come from the east and from the west, and shall recline in the bosoms of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob." And that the region there is a spiritual bride-chamber, and bright …

Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall hear: then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be distinct.
