Isaiah 49:24-26
New King James Version
25 But thus says the Lord:
“Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away,
And the prey of the terrible be delivered;
For I will contend with him who contends with you,
And I will save your children.
26 I will (B)feed those who oppress you with their own flesh,
And they shall be drunk with their own (C)blood as with sweet wine.
All flesh (D)shall know
That I, the Lord, am your Savior,
And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”
