Isaiah 49:7-9
Legacy Standard Bible
7 Thus says Yahweh, the (A)Redeemer of Israel and its Holy One,
To the (B)despised One,
To the One abhorred by the nation,
To the Servant of rulers,
“(C)Kings will see and arise,
Princes will also (D)bow down,
Because of Yahweh who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel who has chosen You.”
8 Thus says Yahweh,
“In an (E)acceptable time I have answered You,
And in a day of salvation I have helped You;
And I will (F)guard You and (G)give You for a covenant of the people,
To (H)establish the land, to make them inherit the desolate [a]inheritance;
9 Saying to those who are (I)bound, ‘Go forth,’
To those who are in darkness, ‘[b]Show yourselves.’
Along the roads they will [c]feed,
And their pasture will be on all (J)bare heights.

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)
