Isaiah 49:18-20
Common English Bible
18 Look up all around and see:
they are all gathered;
they come to you.
As surely as I live, says the Lord,
you will put them all on like ornaments,
bind them on like a bride.
19 As for your ruins and desolate places
and destroyed land—
you will soon be crowded with settlers,
and those who swallowed you will be far away.
20 You will again hear the children who were born bereaved say,
“The place is too crowded for me;
make room for me to settle.”
Isaiah 49:18-20
New International Version
Isaiah 49:18-20
New International Version
18 Lift up your eyes and look around;
all your children gather(A) and come to you.
As surely as I live,(B)” declares the Lord,
“you will wear(C) them all as ornaments;
you will put them on, like a bride.
19 “Though you were ruined and made desolate(D)
and your land laid waste,(E)
now you will be too small for your people,(F)
and those who devoured(G) 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.’(H)
