Isaiah 49:22-24

EasyEnglish Bible

‘Look! I will lift up my hand,
    to call the nations.
I will raise up a flag
    as a sign to those people.
Then they will bring back your sons and your daughters.
    They will carry them in their arms and on their shoulders.
²³ The kings of those nations will take care of your children.
    The kings' daughters will feed them.
The rulers will bend down low in front of you,
    so that their faces touch the ground.
    They will taste the dirt by your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord.
    I will not disappoint people who wait for me to help them.
²⁴ Can anyone rob a brave soldier?
    Can anyone rescue prisoners from a cruel ruler?’
