Isaiah 49:16-18

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁶ Behold, I have indelibly imprinted (tattooed a picture of) you on the palm of each of My hands; [O Zion] your walls are continually before Me.

¹⁷ Your children and your builders make haste; your destroyers and those who laid you waste go forth from you.

¹⁸ Lift up your eyes round about and see [the returning exiles, ready to rebuild Jerusalem]; all these gather together and come to you. As I live, says the Lord, you [Zion] shall surely clothe yourself with them all as with an ornament and bind them on you as a bride does.
