He will teach us His ways so that we may walk in His paths.' For instruction will go out from Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

Isa 49:10-22 : 10 They will neither hunger nor thirst, nor will the scorching heat or sun strike them down.

For the Lord has comforted His people and will have compassion on His afflicted ones. 14 But Zion said, 'The Lord has abandoned me, and my Lord has forgotten me.' 15 Can a woman forget her nursing child or lack compassion for the child of her womb? Even if these forget, I will not forget you. 16 See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; your walls are continually before Me. 17 Your children hurry back, and those who laid you waste and devastated you will depart from you. 18 Lift up your eyes and look around: They all gather and come to you. As surely as I live, declares the Lord, you will wear them all as ornaments and put them on like a bride. 19 Your ruins, desolate places, and devastated land will now be too small for your inhabitants, and those who devoured you will be far away. 20 The children you thought you had lost will say in your hearing, 'This place is too small for us. Make room for us to live here.' 21 Then you will say in your heart, 'Who bore me these children? I was bereaved and barren, exiled and rejected. Who raised these? I was left all alone—where have these come from?' 22 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: 'See, I will lift up my hand to the nations and raise my banner to the peoples. They will bring your sons in their arms and carry your daughters on their shoulders.'
Isa 51:11 : 11 So the ransomed of the Lord will return, and they will come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Joy and gladness will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.
Isa 52:1-9 : 1 Awake, awake, put on your strength, Zion! Put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city, for the uncircumcised and the unclean will never enter you again. 2 Shake off the dust, rise up; sit enthroned, Jerusalem. Free yourself from the chains around your neck, captive Daughter of Zion. 3 For this is what the LORD says: You were sold for nothing, and you will be redeemed without money. 4 For this is what the Sovereign LORD says: Long ago my people went down to Egypt to live there as foreigners, and Assyria oppressed them for no reason. 5 And now, what do I have here? declares the LORD. My people have been taken away for nothing, and their rulers mock, declares the LORD. And all day long, my name is constantly blasphemed. 6 Therefore my people will know my name; therefore on that day they will know that it is I who foretold this—here I am. 7 How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, 'Your God reigns!'. 8 Listen! Your watchmen raise their voices; together they shout for joy. When the LORD returns to Zion, they will see it with their own eyes. 9 Burst into songs of joy together, you ruins of Jerusalem, for the LORD has comforted His people; He has redeemed Jerusalem. 10 The LORD has laid bare His holy arm in the sight of all the nations, and all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.
Isa 54:1-9 : 1 Sing, O barren woman who has not given birth! Break forth into song and shout with joy, you who have not been in labor! For the children of the desolate woman are more than the children of the married woman, says the Lord. 2 Enlarge the place of your tent; stretch out the curtains of your dwellings—do not hold back! Lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes. 3 For you will spread out to the right and to the left, and your descendants will inherit nations and resettle desolate cities. 4 Do not be afraid, for you will not be put to shame; do not be humiliated, for you will not be disgraced. Instead, you will forget the shame of your youth, and you will no longer remember the reproach of your widowhood. 5 For your Maker is your husband—the Lord of Hosts is His name. Your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel; He is called the God of all the earth. 6 For the Lord has called you, like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, like the wife of one’s youth who is rejected, says your God. 7 For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with great compassion I will gather you. 8 In a surge of anger I hid my face from you for a moment, but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you, says the Lord, your Redeemer. 9 To me this is like the days of Noah, when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth. So I have sworn not to be angry with you or rebuke you. 10 Though the mountains may depart and the hills be removed, my steadfast love will not depart from you, and my covenant of peace shall not be broken, says the Lord, who has compassion on you. 11 O afflicted one, storm-tossed and not comforted! Behold, I will set your stones in antimony, and I will lay your foundation with sapphires. 12 I will make your battlements of rubies, your gates of sparkling stones, and all your borders of precious stones. 13 All your children will be taught by the Lord, and great shall be the peace of your children. 14 In righteousness you will be established; be far from oppression, for you will not fear, and from terror, for it will not come near you.
Isa 55:6-7 : 6 Seek the LORD while he may be found; call upon him while he is near. 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts. Let him return to the LORD, so that He may have compassion on him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.
Isa 60:1-9 : 1 Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. 2 For behold, darkness will cover the earth, and thick darkness the nations, but the Lord will arise upon you, and His glory will be seen upon you. 3 Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn. 4 Lift up your eyes and look around: they all gather together; they come to you. Your sons will come from far away, and your daughters will be carried on the hip. 5 Then you will see and be radiant, your heart will tremble and swell with joy, because the wealth of the sea will be brought to you, and the riches of the nations will come to you. 6 A multitude of camels will cover you, the young camels of Midian and Ephah; all those from Sheba will come. They will bring gold and frankincense and will proclaim the praises of the Lord. 7 All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered to you; the rams of Nebaioth will serve you; they will go up with acceptance on my altar, and I will glorify the house of my splendor. 8 Who are these flying like a cloud, and like doves to their windows? 9 Surely the coastlands will wait for me; the ships of Tarshish will come first, bringing your sons from afar, their silver and gold with them, for the name of the Lord your God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He has glorified you. 10 Foreigners will rebuild your walls, and their kings will serve you; for though I struck you in my wrath, I will show you compassion in my favor. 11 Your gates will always be open; they will never be shut, day or night, so that the wealth of the nations may be brought to you, and their kings led in procession. 12 For any nation or kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; those nations will be utterly ruined. 13 The glory of Lebanon will come to you—cypress, pine, and box tree together—to beautify the place of my sanctuary, and I will glorify the place of my feet. 14 The children of those who oppressed you will come and bow down before you; all who despised you will bow at your feet. They will call you the City of the Lord, Zion of the Holy One of Israel. 15 Whereas you have been forsaken and hated, with no one passing through, I will make you an everlasting pride, a joy of all generations. 16 You will suck the milk of nations; you will nurse at royal breasts. Then you will know that I, the Lord, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob. 17 Instead of bronze I will bring gold, and instead of iron I will bring silver; instead of wood, bronze; and instead of stones, iron. I will make your overseers peace and your rulers righteousness. 18 Violence will no longer be heard in your land, nor ruin or destruction within your borders. You will name your walls Salvation and your gates Praise. 19 The sun will no longer be your light by day, nor the brightness of the moon shine on you, for the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory. 20 Your sun will no longer set, and your moon will not wane; for the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your days of mourning will come to an end. 21 Your people will all be righteous; they will inherit the land forever— the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, for my glory. 22 The least of you will become a thousand, and the smallest one a mighty nation. I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time.
Isa 61:3 : 3 To provide for those who mourn in Zion—giving them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, a garment of praise instead of a spirit of faintness. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord to display His splendor.
Isa 61:9-62:5 : 9 Their offspring will be known among the nations, and their descendants among the peoples. All who see them will acknowledge that they are a people the Lord has blessed. 10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul will be joyful in my God, for He has clothed me with garments of salvation and covered me with a robe of righteousness, like a bridegroom adorned with a headdress, and like a bride adorned with her jewels. 11 For as the earth brings forth its growth, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout, so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring up in the sight of all the nations. 1 For Zion’s sake I will not be silent, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not keep still, until her righteousness shines like the dawn, and her salvation like a blazing torch. 2 The nations will see your righteousness, and all kings will see your glory. You will be called by a new name that the mouth of the LORD will designate. 3 You will be a crown of beauty in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the palm of your God. 4 You will no longer be called 'Abandoned,' and your land will no longer be called 'Desolate;' instead, you will be called 'My Delight is in Her,' and your land 'Married.' For the LORD delights in you, and your land will be married. 5 For as a young man marries a virgin, so your sons will marry you; and as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so your God will rejoice over you.
Isa 65:17-25 : 17 Behold, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind. 18 But be glad and rejoice forever in what I will create, for I will create Jerusalem to be a delight and its people a joy. 19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem and take delight in my people; the sound of weeping and crying will no longer be heard in her. 20 No longer will there be an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not live out his years; the one who dies at a hundred will be thought of as a mere youth, and one who fails to reach a hundred will be considered accursed. 21 They will build houses and live in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit. 22 They will not build and have another inhabit, nor will they plant and have another eat. For like the days of a tree will be the days of my people, and my chosen ones will fully enjoy the work of their hands. 23 They will not labor in vain or bear children for sudden disaster, for they are a people blessed by the LORD, they and their offspring with them. 24 Before they call, I will answer; while they are still speaking, I will hear. 25 The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, but the serpent will eat dust. They will not harm or destroy on all my holy mountain, says the LORD.
Isa 66:10-14 : 10 Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad for her, all you who love her; join in her joy, all you who mourn over her. 11 For you will nurse and be satisfied from her comforting breasts; you will drink deeply and delight in her overflowing glory. 12 For this is what the Lord says: 'I will extend peace to her like a river, and the wealth of the nations like a flooding stream; you will nurse and be carried on her hip, and you will be bounced on her knees.' 13 As a mother comforts her child, so I will comfort you; and you will be comforted in Jerusalem. 14 You will see, and your heart will rejoice; your bodies will flourish like grass. The hand of the Lord will be made known to His servants, but His indignation will be known to His enemies.
Isa 66:18-22 : 18 For I know their works and their thoughts; the time is coming to gather all nations and languages. And they will come and see My glory. 19 I will set a sign among them, and I will send some of the survivors to the nations: to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud (those who draw the bow), to Tubal and Javan, and to the distant coastlands that have not heard of My fame or seen My glory. And they will proclaim My glory among the nations. 20 They will bring all your fellow Israelites from all the nations as an offering to the Lord—on horses, in chariots and wagons, on mules and camels—to My holy mountain, Jerusalem, says the Lord, just as the Israelites bring their grain offering in clean vessels to the house of the Lord. 21 And I will also take some of them as priests and Levites, says the Lord. 22 For just as the new heavens and the new earth that I make will endure before Me, declares the Lord, so will your descendants and your name endure.
Jer 31:18-20 : 18 I have surely heard Ephraim’s lamenting: 'You disciplined me, and I was disciplined, like an untrained calf. Restore me, and I will return, for you are the LORD my God.' 19 After I turned away, I repented; after I came to understand, I struck my thigh in grief. I was ashamed and humiliated because I bore the disgrace of my youth. 20 Is Ephraim my dear son, my precious child? For as often as I speak against him, I still remember him. Therefore, my heart yearns for him; I will surely have mercy on him, declares the LORD.
Jer 31:22-26 : 22 How long will you wander, O unfaithful daughter? For the LORD has created something new in the land—a woman will surround a man. 23 This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Once again they will say this in the land of Judah and in its cities when I restore their fortunes: 'May the LORD bless you, O dwelling of righteousness, O holy mountain.' 24 People will live together in Judah and all its cities—farmers and those who move with the herds. 25 For I have satisfied the weary soul and replenished every languishing soul. 26 At this I awoke and looked around, and my sleep was pleasant to me.
Jer 31:33-34 : 33 This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the LORD: I will put my law within them and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. 34 No longer will anyone teach their neighbor or their brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquity and remember their sin no more.
Jer 32:37-41 : 37 Behold, I will gather them from all the lands where I banished them in My anger, wrath, and great displeasure. I will bring them back to this place and let them live in safety. 38 They will be My people, and I will be their God. 39 I will give them one heart and one way so that they may always fear Me, for their own good and the good of their children after them. 40 I will make with them an everlasting covenant; I will never turn away from doing good to them. I will put the fear of Me in their hearts so that they will not turn away from Me. 41 I will rejoice in doing them good, and I will plant them in this land with all My heart and soul.
Jer 33:15-26 : 15 In those days and at that time, I will cause a righteous Branch to sprout for David, and he will administer justice and righteousness in the land. 16 In those days, Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely. This is the name by which she will be called: The Lord Our Righteousness. 17 For this is what the Lord says: David will never fail to have a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel. 18 Nor will the Levitical priests ever fail to have a man before me to offer burnt offerings, to present grain offerings, and to make sacrifices continually. 19 The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: 20 This is what the Lord says: If you could break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night so that day and night would not come at their appointed time, 21 then my covenant with David my servant and my covenant with the Levitical priests who minister before me could also be broken, so that David would no longer have a descendant to reign on his throne. 22 Just as the stars in the sky cannot be counted and the sand on the seashore cannot be measured, so will I multiply the descendants of David my servant and the Levites who minister before me. 23 The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: 24 Have you not noticed what these people are saying: 'The Lord has rejected the two families he chose'? So they despise my people and no longer regard them as a nation. 25 This is what the Lord says: If I have not established my covenant with day and night and the fixed laws of heaven and earth, 26 then I will reject the descendants of Jacob and my servant David and will not choose one of his descendants to rule over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. But I will restore their fortunes and have compassion on them.

Ezek 18:30-32 : 30 Therefore, house of Israel, I will judge each of you according to your own ways, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent! Turn away from all your offenses; then sin will not be your downfall. 31 Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new heart and a new spirit. Why will you die, house of Israel? 32 For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent and live!
Ezek 34:23-31 : 23 I will place over them one shepherd, My servant David, and he will tend them; he will tend them and be their shepherd. 24 I, the LORD, will be their God, and My servant David will be a prince among them. I, the LORD, have spoken. 25 I will make a covenant of peace with them and rid the land of wild animals, so they may live securely in the wilderness and sleep in the forests. 26 I will make them and the areas surrounding My hill a blessing. I will send down showers in their season—showers of blessing will come. 27 The trees of the field will yield their fruit, and the land will produce its crops. They will live securely on their land and know that I am the LORD when I break the bars of their yoke and rescue them from the hands of those who enslaved them. 28 They will no longer be prey for the nations, and the beasts of the earth will not devour them. They will live securely, and no one will make them afraid. 29 I will provide them with a land renowned for its crops, and they will no longer be victims of famine in the land or bear the disgrace of the nations. 30 Then they will know that I, the LORD their God, am with them, and that they are My people—the house of Israel, declares the Lord GOD. 31 You are My sheep, the sheep of My pasture, and I am your God, declares the Lord GOD.
Ezek 37:21-28 : 21 Then say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Behold, I will take the Israelites from among the nations where they have gone. I will gather them from all around and bring them back into their own land.' 22 I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel, and one king will rule over them all. They will no longer be two nations or divided into two kingdoms. 23 They will no longer defile themselves with their idols, their vile images, or any of their transgressions. I will save them from all the places where they have sinned, and I will purify them. They will be My people, and I will be their God. 24 My servant David will be king over them, and there will be one shepherd for all of them. They will follow My laws and carefully obey My decrees. 25 They will live in the land I gave to My servant Jacob, the land where your ancestors lived. They and their children and their descendants will dwell there forever, and My servant David will be their prince forever. 26 I will make a covenant of peace with them, an everlasting covenant. I will establish them and increase their numbers, and I will set My sanctuary among them forever. 27 My dwelling place will be with them; I will be their God, and they will be My people. 28 Then the nations will know that I, the Lord, make Israel holy, when My sanctuary is among them forever.
Ezek 39:25-29 : 25 Therefore, this is what the Lord GOD says: Now I will restore the fortunes of Jacob and have compassion on the whole house of Israel, and I will be zealous for my holy name. 26 They will forget their shame and all the unfaithfulness they committed against me when they live securely in their land with no one to make them afraid. 27 When I bring them back from the nations and gather them from the lands of their enemies, I will show my holiness through them in the sight of many nations. 28 Then they will know that I am the LORD their God when I send them into exile among the nations and gather them back into their land, leaving none behind. 29 And I will no longer hide my face from them, for I have poured out my Spirit on the house of Israel, declares the Sovereign LORD.

I will abolish the bow, the sword, and war from the land, so that all may lie down in safety. 21 I will betroth you to me forever; I will betroth you in righteousness, justice, lovingkindness, and compassion. 22 I will betroth you to me in faithfulness, and you will know the LORD. 23 On that day, I will answer, declares the LORD. I will answer the heavens, and they will answer the earth.

A fountain will flow out of the house of the LORD and water the Valley of Acacias. 19 Egypt will become a desolate wasteland, and Edom a desert wilderness, because of the violence done to the people of Judah, in whose land they shed innocent blood. 20 Judah will be inhabited forever, and Jerusalem through all generations. 21 I will avenge their blood, which I have not yet avenged, for the LORD dwells in Zion.

He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you with His love; He will exult over you with joyful singing. 18 I will gather those who grieve over the appointed festivals, who were burdened with disgrace because of her. 19 Behold, at that time I will deal with all your oppressors. I will save the lame and gather the scattered. I will make them a praise and a name in every land where they have suffered shame. 20 At that time, I will bring you in; at the time I gather you. For I will make you a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth, when I restore your fortunes before your very eyes, says the LORD.
