Isaiah 42:14-17 - God Promises To Help His People
14 I kept silent for a long time. I did not answer my people. The time to act has come. I cry out like a woman in labor. 15 I will destroy the hills and mountains and dry up the grass and trees. I will turn the river valleys into deserts and dry up the pools of water. 16 I will lead my blind people by roads they have never traveled. I will turn their darkness into light and make rough country smooth before them. I will keep my promises without fail. 17 Those who trust in idols and call images their gods will be humiliated and disgraced.
