Isaiah 49:20-22

New International Reader's Version

²⁰ The children born during your time of sorrow
    will speak to you. They will say,
‘This city is too small for us.
    Give us more space to live in.’
²¹ Then you will say to yourself,
    ‘Whose children are these?
I lost my children.
    And I couldn’t have any more.
My children were taken far away from me.
    And no one wanted them.
    Who brought these children up?
I was left all alone.
    So where have these children come from?’ ”
