They shall feed7462 in the ways1870, and their pastures4830 {shall be} in all high places8205. 49:10 They shall not hunger7456 nor thirst6770; neither shall the heat8273 nor sun8121 smite5221 them: for he that hath mercy7355 on them shall lead5090 them, even by the springs4002 of water4325 shall he guide5095 them. 49:11 And I will make7760 all my mountains2022 a way1870, and my highways4546 shall be exalted7311. 49:12 Behold, these shall come0935 from far7350: and, lo, these from the north6828 and from the west3220; and these from the land0776 of Sinim5515. 49:13 Sing7442, O heavens8064; and be joyful1523, O earth0776; and break forth6476 into singing7440, O mountains2022: for the LORD3068 hath comforted5162 his people5971, and will have mercy7355 upon his afflicted6041. 49:14 But Zion6726 said0559, The LORD3068 hath forsaken5800 me, and my Lord0136 hath forgotten7911 me. 49:15 Can a woman0802 forget7911 her sucking child5764, that she should not have compassion7355 on the son1121 of her womb0990? yea, they may forget7911, yet will I not forget7911 thee. 49:16 Behold, I have graven2710 thee upon the palms of {my} hands3709; thy walls2346 {are} continually8548 before me. 49:17 Thy children1121 shall make haste4116; thy destroyers2040 and they that made thee waste2717 shall go forth3318 of thee. 49:18 Lift up5375 thine eyes5869 round about5439, and behold7200: all these gather themselves together6908, {and} come0935 to thee. {As} I live2416, saith5002 the LORD3068, thou shalt surely clothe3847 thee with them all, as with an ornament5716, and bind7194 them {on thee}, as a bride3618 {doeth}. 49:19 For thy waste2723 and thy desolate places8074, and the land0776 of thy destruction2035, shall even now be too narrow3334 by reason of the inhabitants3427, and they that swallowed thee up1104 shall be far away7368. 49:20 The children1121 which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost7923 the other, shall say0559 again in thine ears0241, The place4725 {is} too strait6862 for me: give5066 place4725 to me that I may dwell3427. 49:21 Then shalt thou say0559 in thine heart3824, Who hath begotten3205 me these, seeing I have lost my children7921, and am desolate1565, a captive1540, and removing to and fro5493? and who hath brought up1431 these? Behold, I was left7604 alone; these, where0375 {had} they {been}? 49:22 Thus saith0559 the Lord0136 GOD3069, Behold, I will lift up5375 mine hand3027 to the Gentiles1471, and set up7311 my standard5251 to the people5971: and they shall bring0935 thy sons1121 in {their} arms2684, and thy daughters1323 shall be carried5375 upon {their} shoulders3802. 49:23 And kings4428 shall be thy nursing fathers0539, and their queens8282 thy nursing mothers3243: they shall bow down7812 to thee with {their} face0639 toward the earth0776, and lick up3897 the dust6083 of thy feet7272; and thou shalt know3045 that I {am} the LORD3068: for they shall not be ashamed0954 that wait6960 for me. 49:24 Shall the prey4455 be taken3947 from the mighty1368, or the lawful6662 captive7628 delivered4422? 49:25 But thus saith0559 the LORD3068, Even the captives7628 of the mighty1368 shall be taken away3947, and the prey4455 of the terrible6184 shall be delivered4422: for I will contend7378 with him that contendeth3401 with thee, and I will save3467 thy children1121. 49:26 And I will feed0398 them that oppress3238 thee with their own flesh1320; and they shall be drunken7937 with their own blood1818, as with sweet wine6071: and all flesh1320 shall know3045 that I the LORD3068 {am} thy Saviour3467 and thy Redeemer1350, the mighty One0046 of Jacob3290.
