Isaiah 49:10

Protection and safety Guidance and decisions Comfort Poverty and the vulnerable

⁸ This is what the LORD says: “In the time of favor I will answer You, and in the day of salvation I will help You; I will keep You and appoint You to be a covenant for the people, to restore the land, to apportion its desolate inheritances,

⁹ to say to the prisoners, ‘Come out,’ and to those in darkness, ‘Show yourselves.’ They will feed along the pathways, and find pasture on every barren hill.

They will not hunger or thirst, nor will scorching heat or sun beat down on them. For He who has compassion on them will guide them and lead them beside springs of water.

¹¹ I will turn all My mountains into roads, and My highways will be raised up.

¹² Behold, they will come from far away, from the north and from the west, and from the land of Aswan.”
