Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
 

55:13 instead of the thorn. The thorns were manifestations of God’s great curse on earth because of man’s sin (Genesis 3:17), but the curse will finally be forever removed (Revelation 22:3).
