Isaiah 49:24-26
Authorized (King James) Version
24 Shall the prey be taken from the mighty,
or the lawful captive delivered?
25 But thus saith the Lord,
Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away,
and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered:
for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee,
and I will save thy children.
26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh;
and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine:
and all flesh shall know that I the Lord am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer,
the mighty One of Jacob.
