18
Lift up thine eyes round about, and look on them all; behold, they are gathered together, and are come to thee. I live, saith the Lord, thou shalt clothe thyself with them all as with an ornament, and put them on as a bride her attire.
19
For thy desert and marred and ruined shall now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that devoured thee shall be removed far from thee.
20
For thy sons whom thou hast lost shall say in thine ears, The place narrow for me: make room for me that I may dwell.
21
And thou shalt say in thine heart, Who has begotten me these? whereas I childless, and a widow; but who has brought up these for me? and I was left alone; but whence came these to me?
22
Thus saith the Lord, the Lord, Behold, I lift up mine hand to the nations, and I will lift up my signal to the islands: and they shall bring thy sons in bosom, and shall bear thy daughters on shoulders.
