Isaiah 42:13-17

131The Lord will go out like a warrior, He will stir His 2zeal like a man of war. He will shout, indeed, He will raise a war cry. He will 3prevail against His enemies.

14“4I have kept silent for a long time, I have kept still and restrained Myself. Now like a woman in labor I will groan, I will both gasp and pant.15I will 5lay waste the mountains and hills And wither all their vegetation; I will 6turn the rivers into coastlands And dry up the ponds.16I will 7lead those who are blind by a way they have not known, In paths they have not known I will guide them. I will 8turn darkness into light before them And 9uneven land into plains. These are the things I will do, And I will 10not leave them undone.”17They will be turned back and be 11utterly put to shame, Who trust in 12idols, Who say to cast metal images, “You are our gods.”
