Isaiah 49:23-25
Evangelical Heritage Version
Isaiah 49:23-25
Evangelical Heritage Version
23 Then kings will be your foster fathers,
and their queens will be your nursing mothers.
With their faces to the ground, they will bow down to you.
They will lick the dust at your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord.
Those who wait hopefully for me will not be ashamed.
24 Can plunder be taken from a mighty man?
Can captives be rescued from a tyrant?[a]
25 This is what the Lord says.
Even from a mighty man captives can be taken,
and the victims of a tyrant can be rescued.
So I myself will contend with the one who contends with you,
and I myself will save your children.
