and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness.

and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

For assuredly as the Lord liveth
they shall see that the terrible one is brought to naught,
and the scorner is consumed,
and all that watch for iniquity are cut off;
2 Nephi 27:32
And they that make a man an offender for a word,
and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate,
and turn aside the just for a thing of naught.

concerning the house of Jacob:
Jacob shall not now be ashamed,
neither shall his face now wax pale.

But when he seeth his children,
the work of my hands, in the midst of him,
they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob,
and shall fear the God of Israel.

They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding,
and they that murmured shall learn doctrine.
