Isaiah 9:1-2

Darby Translation

9 Nevertheless the darkness shall not be as when the distress was in the [land], at the time he at first lightly, and afterwards heavily, visited the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,—the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations:

²the people that walked in darkness have seen a great light; they that dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, upon them light hath shone.

9 ^[a]Nevertheless, there will be no more gloom^(A) for those who were in distress. In the past he humbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,^(B) but in the future he will honor Galilee of the nations, by the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan—

have seen a great light;^(D)
on those living in the land of deep darkness^(E)
a light has dawned.^(F)
