9 You will say to the prisoners, “Come out,”and to those who are in darkness, “Show yourselves.”They will graze along every path,and they will find pastures on every bare hill.
10 They will never be hungry or thirsty,nor will the sun or the burning, hot wind strike them.The one who has compassion on them will lead themand guide them to springs.
11 I will turn all my mountains into roads,and my highways will be restored.
12 They will come from far away.They will come from the north and from the west,and they will come from the land of Sinim.
13 Sing with joy, you heavens!Rejoice, you earth!Break into shouts of joy, you mountains!The Lord has comforted his peopleand will have compassion on his humble people.
14 But Zion said, “The Lord has abandoned me.My Lord has forgotten me.”
15 Can a woman forget her nursing child?Will she have no compassion on the child from her womb?Although mothers may forget,I will not forget you.
