New Testament

Isaiah 49:20-23 Modern English Version (MEV)

20. The children whom you shall have, after you have lost the others, shall say again in your ears,“The place is too cramped for me;make room for me that I may dwell here.”

21. Then you shall say in your heart,“Who bore these for me,since I have lost my children and am barren,a captive and a wanderer?And who has brought these up?I was left alone;from where did these come?”

22. Thus says the Lord God: See, I will lift up My hand to the nationsand set up My standard to the peoples;and they shall bring your sons in their arms,and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders;

23. kings shall be your foster fathersand their queens your nursing mothers;they shall bow down to you with their faces toward the groundand lick up the dust of your feet.And you shall know that I am the Lord,for those who wait for Me shall not be ashamed.
