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.’

    ‘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.

    I will raise my banner for all the people to see.
Then they will bring your sons back to you in their arms,
    and they will carry your daughters on their shoulders.
