    will come bending low before you,
and all those who despised you
    will bow down at your feet.

    ‘Zion of the Holy One of Israel.’”

Israel: the Joy of Generations

15 “Although you have been forsaken and despised,
    with no one traveling through,

    You’ll suck the breasts of kings.
Then you will realize that I, the Lord, am your Savior
    and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
