Isaiah 8:22–9:3

²²And ^cthey shall look unto the earth;

And behold ^dtrouble and darkness, ^edimness of ^danguish;

And they shall be driven to darkness.

IX.Nevertheless ^athe dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation,

When at the ^bfirst ^che lightly afflicted ^dthe land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,

And ^eafterward ^fdid more grievously afflict her ^dby the way of the sea,

^gBeyond Jordan, ^hin Galilee of ⁱthe nations.

²The ^djpeople ^kthat walked in darkness have seen a great light:

They that dwell in the land of ^lthe shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.

^3llThou hast multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy:

They joy before thee according to the ^mjoy in harvest,

And ⁿas men rejoice when ^othey divide the spoil.
