⁸ The Lord All-Powerful says, “At that time
    I will break the yoke from their necks
and tear off the ropes that hold them.
    Foreign people will never again make my people slaves.
⁹ They will serve the Lord their God
    and David their king,
    whom I will send to them.

¹⁰ “So people of Jacob, my servants, don’t be afraid.
    Israel, don’t be frightened,” says the Lord.
“I will soon save you from that faraway place where you are captives.
    I will save your family from that land.
The people of Jacob will be safe and have peace again;
    there will be no enemy to frighten them.
