Isaiah 49:22-24

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

²² Thus says the Lord God:
I will soon lift up my hand to the nations
    and raise my signal to the peoples,
and they shall bring your sons in their bosom,
    and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders.^(A)
23 Kings shall be your foster fathers
    and their queens your nursing mothers.
With their faces to the ground they shall bow down to you
    and lick the dust of your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord;
    those who wait for me shall not be put to shame.^(B)

²⁴ Can the prey be taken from the mighty
    or the captives of a tyrant^[a] be rescued?
