If yous tin recover the text, yous tin set out a novel post.
Open a novel tab or window inwards the browser, as well as hitting "New page" / "New post". Copy the content, from the deleted content page / post editor, as well as glue into this page / post editor window. Then Publish.

Having re published the text inwards closed to other post, setup a custom redirect.
Having created a novel page or post from the retrieved content, setup a custom redirect, from the deleted URL, to the novel URL. You won't convey the same URL, for the deleted page / post - but the URL of the deleted page / post volition proceed to work, redirected.
