Isaiah

Isaiah 49:11–13

¹¹I will turn all My mountains into roads,

and My highways will be raised up.

¹²Behold, they will come from far away,

from the north and from the west,^e

and from the land of Aswan.^f”

¹³Shout for joy, O heavens; rejoice, O earth;

break forth in song, O mountains!

For the LORD has comforted His people,

and He will have compassion on His afflicted ones.
