Isaiah 49:18-23

181Lift up your eyes and look around; 2All of them gather together, 3they come to you. 4As I live,” declares the Lord, “You will surely 5put on all of them as 6jewels and bind them on as a bride.19For 7your waste and desolate places and your destroyed land-- Surely now you will be 8too cramped for the inhabitants, And those who 9swallowed you will be far away.20The 10children of 11whom you were bereaved will yet say in your ears, ‘The place is too cramped for me; Make room for me that I may live here.’21Then you will 12say in your heart, ‘Who has begotten these for me, Since I have been bereaved of my children And am 13barren, an 14exile and a wanderer? And who has reared these? Behold, I was 15left alone; 1617From where did these come?’”

22Thus says the Lord 18God, “Behold, I will lift up My hand to the nations And set up My 19standard to the peoples; And they will 20bring your sons in their bosom, And your daughters will be carried on their shoulders.2321Kings will be your guardians, And their princesses your nurses. They will 22bow down to you with their faces to the earth And 23lick the dust of your feet; And you will 24know that I am the Lord; Those who hopefully 25wait for Me will 26not be put to shame.
