Isaiah 49:11-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
11 I will turn all my mountains into roadway,
and make my highways level.(A)
12 See, these shall come from afar:
some from the north and the west,
others from the land of Syene.[a]
13 Sing out, heavens, and rejoice, earth,
break forth into song, you mountains,
For the Lord comforts his people
and shows mercy to his afflicted.
