Isaiah 54:2-4

Revised Standard Version

²Enlarge the place of your tent,
    and let the curtains of your habitations be stretched out;
hold not back, lengthen your cords
    and strengthen your stakes.
³For you will spread abroad to the right and to the left,
    and your descendants will possess the nations
    and will people the desolate cities.

⁴“Fear not, for you will not be ashamed;
be not confounded, for you will not be put to shame;
for you will forget the shame of your youth,
and the reproach of your widowhood you will remember no more.
