Isaiah 49:25-26
New English Translation
25 Indeed,” says the Lord,
“captives will be taken from a warrior;
spoils will be rescued from a conqueror.
I will oppose your adversary
and I will rescue your children.
26 I will make your oppressors eat their own flesh;
they will get drunk on their own blood, as if it were wine.[a]
Then all humankind[b] will recognize that
I am the Lord, your Deliverer,
your Protector,[c] the Powerful One of Jacob.”[d]

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
25 但耶和华说:
“勇士掳去的必被夺回,
暴君抢去的必被救出。
我必与你的敌人争战,
拯救你的儿女。
26 我要使那些欺压你的人吞吃自己的肉,
喝自己的血喝得酩酊大醉,
好像喝酒一样。
那时候,世人都必知道我耶和华是你的救主,
是你的救赎主,
是雅各的大能者。”
