Isaiah 49:18-20

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁸ Lift up thy eyes round about, and see all these are gathered together, they are come to thee: I live, saith the Lord, thou shalt be clothed with all these as with an ornament, and as a bride thou shalt put them about thee.

¹⁹ For thy deserts, and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction shall now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be chased far away.

²⁰ The children of thy barrenness shall still say in thy ears: The place is too strait for me, make me room to dwell in.
