Isaiah

Isaiah 49:24–25

²⁴Can the plunder be snatched from the mighty,

or the captives of a tyrantⁱ be delivered?

²⁵Indeed, this is what the LORD says:

“Even the captives of the mighty will be taken away,

and the plunder of the tyrant will be retrieved;

I will contend with those who contend with you,

and I will save your children.
