Isaiah 49:9

That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.

KJV

ut diceres his qui vincti sunt : Exite, et his qui in tenebris : Revelamini. Super vias pascentur, et in omnibus planis pascua eorum.

Vulgate

λέγοντα τοῖς ἐν δεσμοῖς Ἐξέλθατε, καὶ τοῖς ἐν τῷ σκότει ἀνακαλυφθῆναι. ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ὁδοῖς βοσκηθήσονται, καὶ ἐν πᾶσιν τρίβοις ἡ νομὴ αὐτῶν·

LXX

saying to them that are bound, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Show yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and on all bare heights shall be their pasture.
