Isaiah 66:7-9

New American Standard Bible

⁷ “Before she was in labor, ^(A)she delivered;
Before her pain came, ^(B)she gave birth to a boy.
^8 (C)Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things?
Can a land be ^[a]born in one day?
Can a nation be given birth all at once?
As soon as Zion was in labor, she also delivered her sons.
⁹ Shall I bring to the point of birth but ^(D)not give delivery?” says the Lord.
“Or shall I who gives delivery shut the womb?” says your God.
