Isaiah 49:18-23

Isaiah 49:18-23

18
Raise your eyes, and look around: they are all gathering and coming to you. ADONAI swears: "As surely as I am alive, you will wear them all like jewels, adorn yourself with them like a bride."
19
For your desolate places and ruins and your devastated land will be too cramped for those living in it; your devourers will be far away.
20
The day will come when the children born when you were mourning will say to you, "This place is too cramped for me! Give me room, so I can live!"
21
Then you will ask yourself, "Who fathered these for me? I've been mourning my children, alone, as an exile, wandering to and fro; so who has raised these? I was left alone, so where have these come from?"
22
Adonai ELOHIM answers: "I am beckoning to the nations, raising my banner for the peoples. They will bring your sons in their arms and carry your daughters on their shoulders.
23
Kings will be your foster-fathers, their princesses your nurses. They will bow to you, face toward the earth, and lick the dust on your feet. Then you will know that I am ADONAI - those who wait for me will not be sorry."
