Isaiah 49:18-23

181Raise your eyes and look around; 2All of them gather together, 3they come to you. 4As I live,” declares the Lord, “You will certainly 5put them all on as 6jewelry and bind them on as a bride.19For 7your ruins and deserted places and your destroyed land-- Now you will certainly be 8too cramped for the inhabitants, And those who 9swallowed you will be far away.20The 10children 11you lost 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 fathered these for me, Since I have been bereaved of my children And 13cannot conceive, and I am an 14exile, and a wanderer? And who has raised these? Behold, I was 15left alone; 1617Where are these from?’”

22This is what the Lord 18God says: “Behold, I will lift up My hand to the nations And set up My 19flag to the peoples; And they will 20bring your sons 21in their arms, And your daughters will be carried on their shoulders.2322Kings will be your guardians, And their princesses your nurses. They will 23bow down to you with their faces to the ground And 24lick the dust from your feet; And you will 25know that I am the Lord; Those who hopefully 26wait for Me will 27not be put to shame.
