Chapter 49
(Passion Bible)
Isaiah 49
Ready to read
1
Listen to what I have to say, you islands.
2
He gives me words that pierce and penetrate.[1]
3
And he said to me,
4
I said, “I’ve worked and served for nothing.
5
And now, the Lord Yahweh—
6
who says:
7
Yahweh, Israel’s Kinsman-Redeemer and Holy One,
8
Yahweh says:
9
You will declare to prisoners, ‘You’re free!’
10
They will never be hungry or thirsty.
11
I will level all my mountains as a road for them
12
Look! They will come from faraway lands—
13
Sing for joy, you heavens!
14
But Zion has said, “Yahweh has forsaken me.
15
Yahweh responds, “But how could a loving mother forget her nursing child
16
Can’t you see?
17
Your children, your builders,[12] are running back to you
18
Lift up your head and look all around you.
19
“See? Your ruins and devastated places
20
You thought you had lost the children,[14]
21
And you will say to yourself,
22
This is what Lord Yahweh says:
23
Kings will be their babysitters
24
Who can snatch the prey
25
But Yahweh says:
26
I will cause the violence of your oppressors
