And their princesses your nurses.
They will (B)bow down to you with their [a]faces to the earth
And (C)lick the dust of your feet;
And you will (D)know that I am Yahweh;
Those who (E)hope in Me will (F)not be put to shame.

24 (G)Can the prey be taken from the mighty man,
Or the captives of the [b]righteous be granted escape?”

25 Surely, thus says Yahweh,

“Even the (H)captives of the mighty man will be taken away,
And the prey of the tyrant will be granted escape;
For I will contend with the one who contends with you,
And I will (I)save your sons.
