Isaiah 49:7-10

7Thus says the Lord, the 1Redeemer of Israel and its Holy One, To the 2despised One, To the One abhorred by the nation, To the Servant of rulers, “3Kings will see and arise, Princes will also 4bow down, Because of the Lord who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel who has chosen You.”

8Thus says the Lord, “In a 5favorable time I have answered You, And in a day of salvation I have helped You; And I will 6keep You and 7give You for a covenant of the people, To 8 9restore the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritages;9Saying to those who are 10bound, ‘Go forth,’ To those who are in darkness, ‘Show yourselves.’ Along the roads they will feed, And their pasture will be on all 11bare heights.10They will 12not hunger or thirst, Nor will the scorching 13heat or sun strike them down; For 14He who has compassion on them will 15lead them And will guide them to 16springs of water.
