Isaiah 9:1 - New American Standard Bible 1995 with Strong NumbersBut there will be no [more] gloom for her who was in anguish; in earlier times He treated the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali with contempt, but later on He shall make [it] glorious, by the way of the sea, on the other side of Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles. See the chapterMore versionsKing James Version (Oxford) 1769Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations. See the chapterAmplified Bible - Classic EditionBUT [in the midst of judgment there is the promise and the certainty of the Lord's deliverance and] there shall be no gloom for her who was in anguish.

See the chapterAmerican Standard Version (1901)But there shall be no gloom to her that was in anguish.
