Isaiah 49:22-24

Complete Jewish Bible

²² Adonai Elohim answers:
“I am beckoning to the nations,
raising my banner for the peoples.
They will bring your sons in their arms
and carry your daughters on their shoulders.
²³ Kings will be your foster-fathers,
their princesses your nurses.
They will bow to you, face toward the earth,
and lick the dust on your feet.
Then you will know that I am Adonai —
those who wait for me will not be sorry.”

²⁴ But can booty be wrested from a warrior?
Can a victor’s captives be freed?
