26:15 You have made the nation larger,
you have made the nation larger and revealed your splendor,
you have extended all the borders of the land.
49:20 Yet the children born during your time of bereavement
will say within your hearing,
‘This place is too cramped for us,
make room for us so we can live here.’
49:21 Then you will think to yourself,
‘Who bore these children for me?
I was bereaved and barren,
dismissed and divorced.
Who raised these children?
Look, I was left all alone;
where did these children come from?’”
49:22 This is what the sovereign Lord says:
“Look I will raise my hand to the nations;
I will raise my signal flag to the peoples.
They will bring your sons in their arms
and carry your daughters on their shoulders.
107:38 He blessed
He would not allow their cattle to decrease in number.
4:7 The more the priests increased in numbers,
the more they rebelled against me.
They have turned
into a shameful disgrace!
