9 saying to the prisoners, “Go forth,”to those who are in darkness, “Show yourselves.” They shall feed along the paths,and their pastures shall be in all desolate heights;
10 they shall not hunger nor thirst,neither shall the heat nor sun strike them;for He who has mercy on them shall lead them,even by the springs of water He shall guide them.
11 I will make all My mountains a road,and My highways shall be raised up.
12 See, these shall come from afar;and these will come from the north and from the west,and these from the land of Sinim.
13 Sing, O heavens!And be joyful, O earth!And break forth into singing, Omountains!For the Lord has comforted His peopleand will have mercy on His afflicted.
14 But Zion said, “The Lord has forsaken me,and the Lord has forgotten me.”
15 Can a woman forget her nursing child,and have no compassion on the son of her womb?Even these may forget,yet I will not forget.
