54 Sing, O barren,
    you who did not bear a child.
Break forth into singing and cry aloud,
    you who did not travail with child.
For more are the children of the desolate
    than the children of the married wife,
    says the Lord.
² Enlarge the place of your tent,
    and let them stretch out the curtains of your habitations;
    spare not,
lengthen your cords,
    and strengthen your stakes.
