Saying to those who are bound, Come forth, and to those who are in [spiritual] darkness, Show yourselves [come into the light of the Sun of righteousness]. They shall feed in [a]all the ways [in which they go], and their pastures shall be [not in deserts, but] on all the bare [grass-covered] hills.

10 They will not hunger or thirst, neither will mirage [mislead] or scorching wind or sun smite them; for He Who has mercy on them will lead them, and by springs of water will He guide them.(A)

11 And I will make all My mountains a way, and My highways will be raised up.
