On her sides shall you be (C)carried,
And be dandled on her knees.

Isaiah 49:19-23
New King James Version
19 “For your waste and desolate places,
And the land of your destruction,
(A)Will even now be too small for the inhabitants;
And those who swallowed you up will be far away.
20 (B)The children you will have,
(C)After you have lost the others,
Will say again in your ears,
‘The place is too small for me;
Give me a place where I may dwell.’
21 Then you will say in your heart,
‘Who has begotten these for me,
Since I have lost my children and am desolate,
A captive, and wandering to and fro?
And who has brought these up?
There I was, left alone;
But these, where were they?’ ”
22 (D)Thus says the Lord God:
“Behold, I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations,
And set up My [a]standard for the peoples;
They shall bring your sons in their [b]arms,
And your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders;
23 (E)Kings shall be your foster fathers,
And their queens your nursing mothers;
They shall bow down to you with their faces to the earth,
And (F)lick up the dust of your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord,
(G)For they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me.”
