Isaiah 43:7

The Restorer Of Israel

⁶
“I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’
And to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’
Bring My sons from far way
And My daughters from the ends of the earth,
⁷ 
Everyone who is called by My Name,
Whom I have created for My glory,
Whom I have formed, even whom I have made.” ⁸
Bring out the people who are blind, even though they have eyes,
And the deaf, even though they have ears.
