11 I will make my mountains into roads,
    and the ·roads [highways] will be raised up [C to make a level road; 40:4].
12 Look, people are coming to me from far away,
    from the north and from the west,
from ·Aswan in southern Egypt [L the land of Sinim].”

13 Heavens, shout with joy;
    earth, be happy;
    mountains, burst into song,
because the Lord comforts his people
    and will have ·pity [compassion] on ·those who suffer [the oppressed].
