Isaiah 49:17-19

New English Translation

¹⁷ Your children hurry back,
while those who destroyed and devastated you depart.
¹⁸ Look all around you!^[a]
All of them gather to you.
As surely as I live,” says the Lord,
“you will certainly wear all of them like jewelry;
you will put them on as if you were a bride.
¹⁹ Yes, your land lies in ruins;
it is desolate and devastated.^[b]
But now you will be too small to hold your residents,
and those who devoured you will be far away.
