Isaiah 49:19-21

English Standard Version

¹⁹ “Surely your waste and your desolate places
    and your devastated land—
^(A)surely now you will be too narrow for your inhabitants,
    and those who swallowed you up will be far away.
^20 (B)The children of your bereavement
    will yet say in your ears:
^(C)‘The place is too narrow for me;
    make room for me to dwell in.’
²¹ Then you will say in your heart:
    ‘Who has borne me these?
^(D)I was bereaved and barren,
    exiled and put away,
    but who has brought up these?
Behold, I was left alone;
    from where have these come?’”
