Isaiah 49:22-24

Darby Translation

²²Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will lift up my hand to the nations, and set up my banner to the peoples; and they shall bring thy sons in [their] bosom, and thy daughters shall be carried upon the shoulder.

²³And kings shall be thy nursing-fathers, and their princesses thy nursing-mothers: they shall bow down to thee with the face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet. And thou shalt know that I [am] Jehovah; for they shall not be ashamed who wait on me.

²⁴Shall the prey be taken from the mighty? and shall he that is rightfully captive be delivered?

²²This is what the Sovereign Lord^(A) says:

“See, I will beckon to the nations,
    I will lift up my banner^(B) to the peoples;
they will bring^(C) your sons in their arms
    and carry your daughters on their hips.^(D)
²³Kings^(E) will be your foster fathers,
    and their queens your nursing mothers.^(F)
They will bow down^(G) before you with their faces to the ground;
    they will lick the dust^(H) at your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord;^(I)
    those who hope^(J) in me will not be disappointed.^(K)”
