The captive exile hasteneth that he may be loosed, and that he should not die in the pit, nor that his bread should fail.

The verse 14 is found in chapter 51 of Isaiah. Those who know righteousness should not fear human contempt because God’s salvation endures. Jerusalem is called to awaken and drink the cup of wrath, but afterward that cup will be placed in the hands of her oppressors. The image reverses the people’s situation: those who seemed condemned will recover their dignity.

Der Gefangene wird eilends losgegeben, daß er nicht hinsterbe zur Grube, auch keinen Mangel an Brot habe.
El preso se da prisa para ser suelto, por no morir en la mazmorra, ni que le falte su pan.
El cautivo encorvado será liberado pronto; no morirá en la fosa ni le faltará su pan.
Bientôt celui qui est courbé sous les fers sera délivré; Il ne mourra pas dans la fosse, Et son pain ne lui manquera pas.
Colui che è stato menato in cattività si affretta a sciogliersi, acciocchè non muoia nella fossa, e che non gli manchi il pane.
O exilado cativo depressa será solto, e não morrerá na caverna, e o seu pão não lhe faltará.
被擄的即將得釋放, 不至於死而下入地府, 也不致缺乏食物。
