23:049:007 Thus saith the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One,
to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth,
to a servant of rulers, Kings shall see and arise, princes
also shall worship, because of the LORD that is faithful, and
the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee.
23:049:008 Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee,
and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will
preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to
establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate
heritages;
23:049:009 That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that
are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways,
and their pastures shall be in all high places.
23:049:010 They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor
sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead
them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.
23:049:011 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall
be exalted.
23:049:012 Behold, these shall come from far: and, lo, these from the
north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.
23:049:013 Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into
singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted his people,
and will have mercy upon his afflicted.
23:049:014 But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath
forgotten me.
23:049:015 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have
compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet
will I not forget thee.
23:049:016 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy
walls are continually before me.
23:049:017 Thy children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that
made thee waste shall go forth of thee.
23:049:018 Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather
themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the
LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an
ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth.
23:049:019 For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy
destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the
inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far
away.
23:049:020 The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the
other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait
for me: give place to me that I may dwell.
