Isaiah

Isaiah 49:9–10

⁹to say to the prisoners, ‘Come out,’

and to those in darkness, ‘Show yourselves.’

They will feed along the pathways,

and find pasture on every barren hill.

¹⁰They will not hunger or thirst,

nor will scorching heat or sun beat down on them.^d

For He who has compassion on them will guide them

and lead them beside springs of water.
