Isaiah 42:14
Berean Standard Bible
“I have kept silent from ages past; I have remained quiet and restrained. But now I will groan like a woman in labor; I will at once gasp and pant.
Context
12Let them give glory to the LORD
and declare His praise in the islands. 13The LORD goes forth like a mighty one;
He stirs up His zeal like a warrior.
He shouts; yes, He roars
in triumph over His enemies: 14“I have kept silent from ages past;
I have remained quiet and restrained.
But now I will groan like a woman in labor;
I will at once gasp and pant. 15I will lay waste the mountains and hills
and dry up all their vegetation.
I will turn the rivers into dry land *
and drain the marshes. 16I will lead the blind by a way they did not know;
I will guide them on unfamiliar paths.
I will turn darkness into light before them
and rough places into level ground.
These things I will do for them,
and I will not forsake them.
