Holman Christian Standard Bible
Isaiah 49:18-20
Holman Christian Standard Bible
18 Look up, and look around.
They all gather together; they come to you.(A)
As I live”—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
“you will wear all your children[a] as jewelry,
and put them on as a bride does.
19 For your waste and desolate places
and your land marked by ruins—
will now be indeed too small for the inhabitants,(B)
and those who swallowed you up will be far away.
20 Yet as you listen, the children
that you have been deprived of will say,
‘This place is too small for me;
make room for me so that I may settle.’(C)

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)
