Isaiah 49:24-26
Expanded Bible
24 Can ·the wealth a soldier wins in war [spoils; plunder] be taken away from ·him [a warrior; a strong man]?
Can a prisoner be freed from a ·powerful soldier [tyrant][a]?
25 This is what the Lord says:
“The ·prisoners [captives] will be taken from the ·strong soldiers [mighty one].
·What the soldiers have taken will be saved [L …and spoils/plunder rescued from the tyrant].
I will fight ·your enemies [L those who fight with you],
and I will save your children.
26 I will force ·those who trouble you [your enemies/oppressors] to eat their own flesh.
Their own blood will be the wine that makes them drunk.
Then ·everyone [all flesh] will know
I, the Lord, am the One who saves you;
I am the Powerful One of Jacob ·who saves you [your redeemer].”

25 Indeed, this is what the Lord says:
“Even the (B)captives of the mighty man will be taken away,
And the prey of a tyrant will be rescued;
For I will contend with the one who contends with you,
And I will (C)save your sons.
26 I will feed your (D)oppressors with their (E)own flesh,
And they will become drunk with their own blood as with sweet wine;
And [b](F)humanity will know that I, the Lord, am your (G)Savior
And your (H)Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”
