Isaiah 49:19-21

New Century Version

¹⁹ “You were destroyed and defeated,
    and your land was made useless.
But now you will have more people than the land can hold,
    and those people who destroyed you will be far away.
²⁰ Children were born to you while you were sad,
    but they will say to you,
‘This place is too small for us.
    Give us a bigger place to live.’
²¹ Then you will say to yourself,
    ‘Who gave me all these children?
I was sad and lonely,
    defeated and separated from my people.
    So who reared these children?
I was left all alone.
    Where did all these children come from?’”
