Isaiah 49:19-21
New Catholic Bible
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?”
Isaiah 49:19-21

Isaiah 49:19-21
New International Version
19 “Though you were ruined and made desolate(A)
and your land laid waste,(B)
now you will be too small for your people,(C)
and those who devoured(D) you will be far away.
20 The children born during your bereavement
will yet say in your hearing,
‘This place is too small for us;
give us more space to live in.’(E)
21 Then you will say in your heart,
‘Who bore me these?(F)
I was bereaved(G) and barren;
I was exiled and rejected.(H)
Who brought these(I) up?
I was left(J) all alone,(K)
but these—where have they come from?’”
