New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
19 For your wastelands, your desolate places,
and your devastated land—
now you will be too crowded for your inhabitants,
and those who swallowed you up will be far away.(A)
20 The children born in the time of your bereavement
will yet say in your hearing:
“The place is too crowded for me;
make room for me to settle.”(B)
21 Then you will say in your heart,
“Who has borne me these?
I was bereaved and barren,
exiled and put away—
so who has reared these?
I was left all alone—
where, then, have these come from?”(C)
22 Thus says the Lord God:
I will soon lift up my hand to the nations
and raise my signal to the peoples,
and they shall bring your sons in their bosom,
and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders.(D)
23 Kings shall be your foster fathers
and their queens your nursing mothers.
With their faces to the ground they shall bow down to you
and lick the dust of your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord;
those who wait for me shall not be put to shame.(E)
Isaiah 49:19-23
New International Version
19 “Though you were ruined and made desolate(A)
and your land laid waste,(B)
now you will be too small for your people,(C)
and those who devoured(D) you will be far away.
20 The children born during your bereavement
will yet say in your hearing,
‘This place is too small for us;
give us more space to live in.’(E)
21 Then you will say in your heart,
‘Who bore me these?(F)
I was bereaved(G) and barren;
I was exiled and rejected.(H)
Who brought these(I) up?
I was left(J) all alone,(K)
but these—where have they come from?’”
22 This is what the Sovereign Lord(L) says:
“See, I will beckon to the nations,
I will lift up my banner(M) to the peoples;
they will bring(N) your sons in their arms
and carry your daughters on their hips.(O)
23 Kings(P) will be your foster fathers,
and their queens your nursing mothers.(Q)
They will bow down(R) before you with their faces to the ground;
they will lick the dust(S) at your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord;(T)
those who hope(U) in me will not be disappointed.(V)”

coming over to you in chains.(E)

there is no other god.(H)’”
