Isaiah 49:19-21

New Catholic Bible

¹⁹ You had lived in a desolate wasteland,
    amid devastated ruins.
Now the land is too tiny for its inhabitants,
    while those who destroyed you will be far away.
²⁰ The children born during your bereavement
    will say in your hearing,
“This place is too cramped for me;
    make room for me to live in.”
²¹ Then you will say to yourself,
    “Who bore these children for me?
I was bereaved and barren,
    I was exiled and repudiated;
    who has reared them?
I was left all alone;
    where then have these come from?”
