Isaiah 10:20-23
English Standard Version
The Remnant of Israel Will Return
20 (A)In that day (B)the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no more (C)lean on him who struck them, but (D)will lean on the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. 21 A remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, (E)to the mighty God. 22 (F)For though your people Israel be as the sand of the sea, (G)only a remnant of them will return. (H)Destruction is decreed, overflowing with righteousness. 23 For the Lord God of hosts will make a full end, as decreed, in the midst of all the earth.

Isaiah 43:5
English Standard Version
5 (A)Fear not, for I am with you;
(B)I will bring your offspring from the east,
and from the west I will gather you.
Isaiah 43:6
English Standard Version
6 I will say to the north, Give up,
and to the south, Do not withhold;
bring (A)my sons from afar
and (B)my daughters from the end of the earth,
Isaiah 49:6-26
English Standard Version
6 he says:
“It is too light a thing that you should be my servant
to raise up the tribes of Jacob
and to bring back the preserved of Israel;
(A)I will make you (B)as a light for the nations,
that (C)my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”
7 Thus says the Lord,
(D)the Redeemer of Israel and his Holy One,
(E)to one deeply despised, abhorred by the nation,
the servant of rulers:
(F)“Kings shall see and arise;
princes, and they shall prostrate themselves;
because of the Lord, who is faithful,
the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.”
The Restoration of Israel
8 Thus says the Lord:
(G)“In a (H)time of favor I have answered you;
in a day of salvation I have helped you;
I will keep you (I)and give you
as a covenant to the people,
to establish the land,
(J)to apportion the desolate heritages,
9 (K)saying to the prisoners, ‘Come out,’
to those who are in darkness, ‘Appear.’
(L)They shall feed along the ways;
on all bare heights shall be their pasture;
10 (M)they shall not hunger or thirst,
neither scorching wind nor sun shall strike them,
for he who has pity on them (N)will lead them,
and by springs of water will guide them.
11 (O)And I will make all my mountains a road,
and my highways shall be raised up.
12 (P)Behold, these shall come from afar,
and behold, (Q)these from the north and from the west,[a]
and these from the land of Syene.”[b]
13 (R)Sing for joy, O heavens, and exult, O earth;
break forth, O mountains, into singing!
For the Lord (S)has comforted his people
and will have compassion on his afflicted.
14 But Zion said, (T)“The Lord has forsaken me;
my Lord has forgotten me.”
15 (U)“Can a woman forget her nursing child,
that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb?
Even these may forget,
yet I will not forget you.
16 Behold, (V)I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;
your walls are continually before me.
17 Your builders make haste;[c]
(W)your destroyers and those who laid you waste go out from you.
18 (X)Lift up your eyes around and see;
they all gather, they come to you.
(Y)As I live, declares the Lord,
(Z)you shall put them all on as an ornament;
you shall bind them on as a bride does.
19 “Surely your waste and your desolate places
and your devastated land—
(AA)surely now you will be too narrow for your inhabitants,
and those who swallowed you up will be far away.
20 (AB)The children of your bereavement
will yet say in your ears:
(AC)‘The place is too narrow for me;
make room for me to dwell in.’
21 Then you will say in your heart:
‘Who has borne me these?
(AD)I was bereaved and barren,
exiled and put away,
but who has brought up these?
Behold, I was left alone;
from where have these come?’”
22 Thus says the Lord God:
“Behold, I will lift up my hand to the nations,
(AE)and raise my signal to the peoples;
(AF)and they shall bring your sons in their arms,[d]
and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders.
23 (AG)Kings shall be your foster fathers,
and their queens your nursing mothers.
(AH)With their faces to the ground they shall bow down to you,
and (AI)lick the dust of your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord;
(AJ)those who wait for me (AK)shall not be put to shame.”
24 Can the prey be taken from the mighty,
or the captives of a tyrant[e] be rescued?
25 For thus says the Lord:
(AL)“Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken,
and the prey of the tyrant be rescued,
for I will contend with those who contend with you,
and I will save your children.
26 (AM)I will make your oppressors eat their own flesh,
and they shall be drunk (AN)with their own blood as with wine.
Then all flesh shall know
that (AO)I am the Lord your Savior,
and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”

3 to grant to those who mourn in Zion—
(A)to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes,
(B)the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit;
(C)that they may be called oaks of righteousness,
the planting of the Lord, (D)that he may be glorified.[a]
4 (E)They shall build up the ancient ruins;
they shall raise up the former devastations;
they shall repair the ruined cities,
the devastations of many generations.
5 (F)Strangers shall stand and tend your flocks;
foreigners shall be your plowmen and vinedressers;
6 (G)but you shall be called the priests of the Lord;
they shall speak of you as the ministers of our God;
(H)you shall eat the wealth of the nations,
and in their glory you shall boast.
7 (I)Instead of your shame there shall be a double portion;
instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their lot;
therefore in their land they shall possess a double portion;
they shall have everlasting joy.
8 (J)For I the Lord love justice;
I hate robbery and wrong;[b]
(K)I will faithfully give them their recompense,
(L)and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 Their offspring shall be known among the nations,
and their descendants in the midst of the peoples;
all who see them shall acknowledge them,
that they are an offspring the Lord has blessed.
10 (M)I will greatly rejoice in the Lord;
my soul shall exult in my God,
(N)for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation;
he has covered me with the robe of righteousness,
as a bridegroom decks himself (O)like a priest with a beautiful headdress,
(P)and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
