Isaiah 66:7-9
Lexham English Bible
Zion’s Delivery
7 Before she was in labor she gave birth;
before labor pains[a] came to her, she gave birth to a son.
8 Who has heard anything like this?
Who has seen anything like these things?
Can a land be born in one day?
Or can a nation be born in a moment?
Yet when she was in labor, Zion indeed gave birth to her children.
9 Shall I myself I break open and not deliver?”[b] says Yahweh,
“or I who delivers[c] lock up the womb?” says your God.
