Isaiah 49:7-9
New Living Translation
7 The Lord, the Redeemer
and Holy One of Israel,
says to the one who is despised and rejected by the nations,
to the one who is the servant of rulers:
“Kings will stand at attention when you pass by.
Princes will also bow low
because of the Lord, the faithful one,
the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.”
Promises of Israel’s Restoration
8 This is what the Lord says:
“At just the right time, I will respond to you.[a]
On the day of salvation I will help you.
I will protect you and give you to the people
as my covenant with them.
Through you I will reestablish the land of Israel
and assign it to its own people again.
9 I will say to the prisoners, ‘Come out in freedom,’
and to those in darkness, ‘Come into the light.’
They will be my sheep, grazing in green pastures
and on hills that were previously bare.
Isaiah 49:7-9
New International Version
7 This is what the Lord says—
the Redeemer and Holy One of Israel(A)—
to him who was despised(B) and abhorred by the nation,
to the servant of rulers:
“Kings(C) will see you and stand up,
princes will see and bow down,(D)
because of the Lord, who is faithful,(E)
the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen(F) you.”
Restoration of Israel
8 This is what the Lord says:
“In the time of my favor(G) I will answer you,
and in the day of salvation I will help you;(H)
I will keep(I) you and will make you
to be a covenant for the people,(J)
to restore the land(K)
and to reassign its desolate inheritances,(L)
9 to say to the captives,(M) ‘Come out,’
and to those in darkness,(N) ‘Be free!’
“They will feed beside the roads
and find pasture on every barren hill.(O)
