Isaiah 66:7-14

Authorized (King James) Version

⁷ Before she travailed, she brought forth;
before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
⁸ Who hath heard such a thing?
who hath seen such things?
Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day?
or shall a nation be born at once?
for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
⁹ Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth?
saith the Lord:
shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb?
saith thy God.

¹⁰ Rejoice ye with Jerusalem,
and be glad with her, all ye that love her:
rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her:
¹¹ that ye may suck,
and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations;
that ye may milk out,
and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
¹² For thus saith the Lord,
Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river,
and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream:
then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides,
and be dandled upon her knees.
¹³ As one whom his mother comforteth,
so will I comfort you;
and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
¹⁴ And when ye see this, your heart shall rejoice,
and your bones shall flourish like an herb:
and the hand of the Lord shall be known toward his servants,
and his indignation toward his enemies.
