Isaiah 49:7-9

New International Version

⁷ This is what the Lord says—
    the Redeemer and Holy One of Israel^(A)—
to him who was despised^(B) and abhorred by the nation,
    to the servant of rulers:
“Kings^(C) will see you and stand up,
    princes will see and bow down,^(D)
because of the Lord, who is faithful,^(E)
    the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen^(F) you.”

“In the time of my favor^(G) I will answer you,
    and in the day of salvation I will help you;^(H)
I will keep^(I) you and will make you
    to be a covenant for the people,^(J)
to restore the land^(K)
    and to reassign its desolate inheritances,^(L)
9 to say to the captives,^(M) ‘Come out,’
    and to those in darkness,^(N) ‘Be free!’

“They will feed beside the roads
    and find pasture on every barren hill.^(O)
