“In an ^(A)acceptable time I have answered You,
And in a day of salvation I have helped You;
And I will ^(B)guard You and ^(C)give You for a covenant of the people,
To ^(D)establish the land, to make them inherit the desolate ^[a]inheritance;
⁹ Saying to those who are ^(E)bound, ‘Go forth,’
To those who are in darkness, ‘^[b]Show yourselves.’
Along the roads they will ^[c]feed,
And their pasture will be on all ^(F)bare heights.
¹⁰ They will ^(G)not hunger or thirst,
Nor will the scorching ^(H)heat or sun strike them down;
For ^(I)He who has compassion on them will ^(J)guide them
And will lead them to ^(K)springs of water.
¹¹ I will set all ^(L)My mountains as a road,
And My ^(M)highways will be raised up.
¹² Behold, these will come ^(N)from afar;
And behold, these will come from the ^(O)north and from the west,
And these from the land of Sinim.”
^13 (P)Shout for joy, O heavens! And rejoice, O earth!
Break forth into joyful shouting, O mountains!
For ^(Q)Yahweh has comforted His people
And will ^(R)have compassion on His afflicted.
