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.
