Isaiah 49:18-20
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
18 Lift up your eyes all around and see;
they all gather, they come to you.
As I live, says the Lord,
you shall put all of them on like an ornament,
and like a bride you shall bind them on.
19 Surely your waste and your desolate places
and your devastated land—
surely now you will be too crowded for your inhabitants,
and those who swallowed you up will be far away.
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.”
Isaiah 49:18-20
New International Version
18 Lift up your eyes and look around;
all your children gather(A) and come to you.
As surely as I live,(B)” declares the Lord,
“you will wear(C) them all as ornaments;
you will put them on, like a bride.
19 “Though you were ruined and made desolate(D)
and your land laid waste,(E)
now you will be too small for your people,(F)
and those who devoured(G) 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.’(H)
