Isaiah 51:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 Consider Abraham your father, and Sarah that bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him and increased him.
3 Surely the Lord shall comfort Zion: he shall comfort all her desolations, and he shall make her desert [a]like Eden, and her wilderness like the garden of the Lord: joy and gladness shall be found therein: praise, and the voice of singing.
4 Hearken ye unto me my people, and give ear unto me, O my people: for a [b]Law shall proceed from me, and I will bring forth my judgment for the light of the people.

New International Version
2 look to Abraham,(A) your father,
and to Sarah, who gave you birth.
When I called him he was only one man,
and I blessed him and made him many.(B)
3 The Lord will surely comfort(C) Zion(D)
and will look with compassion on all her ruins;(E)
he will make her deserts like Eden,(F)
her wastelands(G) like the garden of the Lord.
Joy and gladness(H) will be found in her,
thanksgiving(I) and the sound of singing.
