Vulgate
καὶ οἰκοδομήσουσιν ἐρήμους αἰωνίας, ἐξηρημωμένας πρότερον ἐξαναστήσουσιν· καὶ καινιοῦσιν πόλεις ἐρήμους, ἐξηρημωμένας εἰς γενεάς.
LXX
And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
