⁶ God ^(A)settles the solitary in a home;
    he ^(B)leads out the prisoners to prosperity,
    but ^(C)the rebellious dwell in ^(D)a parched land.

⁵ Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread,
    but those who were hungry have ceased to hunger.
^(A)The barren has borne seven,
    ^(B)but she who has many children is forlorn.

54 ^(A)“Sing, O barren one, who did not bear;
    break forth into singing and cry aloud,
    you who have not been in labour!
For the children of ^(B)the desolate one ^(C)will be more
    than the children of her who is married,” says the Lord.
