9 to say to the captives, ‘Come out,’

and to those in darkness, ‘Be free!’

“They will feed beside the roads

and find pasture on every barren hill.

10 They will neither hunger nor thirst,

nor will the desert heat or the sun beat down on them.

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 See, they will come from afar—

some from the north, some from the west,

some from the region of Aswan.”

9 That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth;

To them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves.

They shall feed in the ways,

And their pastures shall be in all high places.

10 They shall not hunger nor thirst;

Neither shall the heat nor sun smite them:

For he that hath mercy on them shall lead them,

Even by the springs of water shall he guide them.

11 And I will make all my mountains a way,

And my highways shall be exalted.

12 Behold, these shall come from far:

And, lo, these from the north and from the west;

And these from the land of Sinim.

9 I will say to the prisoners, ‘Come out in freedom,’

and to those in darkness, ‘Come into the light.’

They will be my sheep, grazing in green pastures

and on hills that were previously bare.

10 They will neither hunger nor thirst.

The searing sun will not reach them anymore.

For the Lord in his mercy will lead them;

he will lead them beside cool waters.

11 And I will make my mountains into level paths for them.

The highways will be raised above the valleys.

12 See, my people will return from far away,

from lands to the north and west,

and from as far south as Egypt.”

9 That You may say to the prisoners, ‘Go forth,’

To those who are in darkness, ‘Show yourselves.’

“They shall feed along the roads,

And their pastures shall be on all desolate heights.

10 They shall neither hunger nor thirst,

Neither heat nor sun shall strike them;

For He who has mercy on them will lead them,

Even by the springs of water He will guide them.

11 I will make each of My mountains a road,

And My highways shall be elevated.

12 Surely these shall come from afar;

Look! Those from the north and the west,

And these from the land of Sinim.”

9 You will tell the prisoners, ‘Come out of your prison.’

You will tell those in darkness, ‘Come into the light.’

The people will eat beside the roads,

and they will find food even on bare hills.

10 They will not be hungry or thirsty.

Neither the hot sun nor the desert wind will hurt them.

The God who comforts them will lead them

and guide them by springs of water.

11 I will make my mountains into roads,

and the roads will be raised up.

12 Look, people are coming to me from far away,

from the north and from the west,

from Aswan in southern Egypt.”

9 saying to them that are bound, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Show yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and on all bare heights shall be their pasture. 10 They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them will lead them, even by springs of water will he guide them. 11 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted. 12 Lo, these shall come from far; and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.

9 saying to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pasture shall be on all bare hills. 10 They shall not hunger nor thirst, neither shall the heat nor sun smite them; for he that hath mercy on them will lead them, and by the springs of water will he guide them. 11 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be raised up. 12 Behold, these shall come from afar; and behold, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.

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 them 

and 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. 

9 saying to the prisoners: Come out,

and to those who are in darkness: Show yourselves.

They will feed along the pathways,

and their pastures will be on all the barren heights.

10 They will not hunger or thirst,

the scorching heat or sun will not strike them;

for their compassionate One will guide them,

and lead them to springs of water.

11 I will make all My mountains into a road,

and My highways will be raised up.

12 See, these will come from far away,

from the north and from the west,

and from the land of Sinim.

9 saying to the prisoners, “Come out,”

to those who are in darkness, “Show yourselves.”

They shall feed along the ways,

on all the bare heights shall be their pasture;

10 they shall not hunger or thirst,

neither scorching wind nor sun shall strike them down,

for he who has pity on them will lead them,

and by springs of water will guide them.

11 And I will turn all my mountains into a road,

and my highways shall be raised up.

12 Lo, these shall come from far away,

and lo, these from the north and from the west,

and these from the land of Syene.

9 saying to the prisoners, “Come out!”

to those who are in darkness, “Show yourselves!”

they shall feed along the ways,

and their pasturage shall be on all the barren heights.

10 They shall not be hungry or thirsty,

and heat and sun shall not strike them,

for he who takes pity on them will lead them,

and he will guide them to springs of water.

11 And I will make all my mountains like a road,

and my highways shall lead up.

12 Look! These shall come from afar,

And look! These from the north and from the west

and these from the land of Sinim.”

9 I want you to say to the prisoners, ‘Come out.’

Tell those who are in their dark cells, ‘You are free!’

“On their way home they will eat beside the roads.

They will find plenty to eat on every bare hill.

10 They will not get hungry or thirsty.

The heat from the desert sun will not beat down on them.

The One who shows his tender love to them will guide them.

Like a shepherd, he will lead them beside springs of water.

11 I will make roads across the mountains.

I will build wide roads for my people.

12 They will come from far away.

Some of them will come from the north.

Others will come from the west.

Still others will come from Aswan in the south.”

9 Saying to those who are bound, ‘Go forth,’

To those who are in darkness, ‘Show yourselves.’

Along the roads they will feed,

And their pasture will be on all bare heights.

10 “They will not hunger or thirst,

Nor will the scorching heat or sun strike them down;

For He who has compassion on them will lead them

And will guide them to springs of water.

11 “I will make all My mountains a road,

And My highways will be raised up.

12 “Behold, these will come from afar;

And lo, these will come from the north and from the west,

And these from the land of Sinim.”
