Isaiah 49:17-23
New American Standard Bible
17 Your [a]builders hurry;
Your (A)destroyers and devastators
Will leave you.
18 (B)Raise your eyes and look around;
(C)All of them gather together, (D)they come to you.
(E)As I live,” declares the Lord,
“You will certainly (F)put them all on as [b]jewelry and bind them on as a bride.
19 For (G)your ruins and deserted places and your destroyed land—
Now you will certainly be (H)too cramped for the inhabitants,
And those who (I)swallowed you will be far away.
20 The (J)children [c]you lost will yet say in your ears,
‘The place is too cramped for me;
Make room for me that I may live here.’
21 Then you will (K)say in your heart,
‘Who has fathered these for me,
Since I have been bereaved of my children
And (L)cannot conceive, and I am an (M)exile, and a wanderer?
And who has raised these?
Behold, I was (N)left alone;
[d](O)Where are these from?’”
22 This is what the Lord [e]God says:
“Behold, I will lift up My hand to the nations
And set up My (P)flag to the peoples;
And they will (Q)bring your sons [f]in their arms,
And your daughters will be carried on their shoulders.
23 (R)Kings will be your guardians,
And their princesses your nurses.
They will (S)bow down to you with their faces to the ground
And (T)lick the dust from your feet;
And you will (U)know that I am the Lord;
Those who hopefully (V)wait for Me will (W)not be put to shame.

New American Standard Bible
21 And say to them, ‘This is what the Lord God says: “Behold, I am going to (A)take the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land; 22 and I will make them (B)one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and (C)one king will be king for all of them; and they will no longer be two nations, and no longer be divided into two kingdoms.
