Isaiah:49:17-21
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Thy children shall make haste ;
thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth of thee .
*
Lift up thine eyes round about ,
and behold :
all these gather themselves together ,
and come to thee .
As I live ,
saith the LORD ,
thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all ,
as with an ornament ,
and bind them on thee ,
as a bride doeth .
*
For thy waste and thy desolate places ,
and the land of thy destruction ,
shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants ,
and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away .
*
The children which thou shalt have ,
after thou hast lost the other ,
shall say again in thine ears ,
The place is too strait for me :
give place to me that I may dwell .
*
Then shalt thou say in thine heart ,
Who hath begotten me these ,
seeing I have lost my children ,
and am desolate ,
a captive ,
and removing to and fro ?
and who hath brought up these ?
Behold ,
I was left alone ;
these ,
where had they been ?
