Context Reading
7Yahweh, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One,says to him whom man despises, to him whom the nation abhors, to a servant of rulers:“Kings shall see and rise up,princes, and they shall worship,because of Yahweh who is faithful, even the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.” 8Yahweh says, “I have answered you in an acceptable time.I have helped you in a day of salvation.I will preserve you and give you for a covenant of the people,to raise up the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritage, 9saying to those who are bound, ‘Come out!’;to those who are in darkness, ‘Show yourselves!’“They shall feed along the paths,and their pasture shall be on all treeless heights. 10They shall not hunger nor thirst;neither shall the heat nor sun strike them,for he who has mercy on them will lead them.He will guide them by springs of water. 11I will make all my mountains a road,and my highways shall be exalted.
