Isaiah 49:8-10

Modern English Version

In an acceptable time I have heard you,
    and in a day of salvation I have helped you;
and I will preserve you, and give you
    as a covenant of the people,
to restore the earth,
    to make them inherit the desolate heritages,
⁹ saying to the prisoners, “Go forth,”
    to those who are in darkness, “Show yourselves.”

They shall feed along the paths,
    and their pastures shall be in all desolate heights;
¹⁰ they shall not hunger nor thirst,
    neither shall the heat nor sun strike them;
for He who has mercy on them shall lead them,
    even by the springs of water He shall guide them.
