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.
    I was defeated and away from my people.
    So who reared these children?
I was left all alone.
    Where did all these children come from?’”

22 This is what the Lord God says:
“See, I will lift my hand to signal the nations.
    I will raise my banner for all people to see.
Then they will bring your sons back to you in their arms.
    They will carry your daughters on their shoulders.
