Thus says God, Adonai,
who created the heavens and stretched them out,
who spread out the earth and what comes from it,
who gives breath to the people on it,
    and Ruach to those who walk in it[a]
“I, Adonai, called You in righteousness,
I will take hold of Your hand,
I will keep You and give You
    as a covenant to the people,[b]
    as a light to the nations,[c]
by opening blind eyes,
    bringing prisoners out of the dungeon,
    and those sitting in darkness out of the prison house.[d]

I will keep(H) you and will make you
    to be a covenant(I) for the people
    and a light(J) for the Gentiles,(K)
to open eyes that are blind,(L)
    to free(M) captives from prison(N)
    and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.(O)
