Sing,{H7442} O barren,{H6135} thou that didst not bear;{H3205} break forth{H6476} into singing,{H7440} and cry aloud,{H6670} thou that didst not travail with child:{H2342} for more{H7227} are the children{H1121} of the desolate{H8074} than the children{H1121} of the married wife,{H1166} saith{H559} Jehovah.{H3068}

Enlarge{H7337} the place{H4725} of thy tent,{H168} and let them stretch forth{H5186} the curtains{H3407} of thy habitations;{H4908} spare{H2820} not: lengthen{H748} thy cords,{H4340} and strengthen{H2388} thy stakes.{H3489}

For thou shalt spread abroad{H6555} on the right hand{H3225} and on the left;{H8040} and thy seed{H2233} shall possess{H3423} the nations,{H1471} and make the desolate{H8074} cities{H5892} to be inhabited.{H3427}

Fear{H3372} not; for thou shalt not be ashamed:{H954} neither be thou confounded;{H3637} for thou shalt not be put to shame:{H2659} for thou shalt forget{H7911} the shame{H1322} of thy youth;{H5934} and the reproach{H2781} of thy widowhood{H491} shalt thou remember{H2142} no more.

For thy Maker{H6213} is thy husband;{H1166} Jehovah{H3068} of hosts{H6635} is his name:{H8034} and the Holy One{H6918} of Israel{H3478} is thy Redeemer;{H1350} the God{H430} of the whole earth{H776} shall he be called.{H7121}

For Jehovah{H3068} hath called{H7121} thee as a wife{H802} forsaken{H5800} and grieved{H6087} in spirit,{H7307} even a wife{H802} of youth,{H5271} when she is cast off,{H3988} saith{H559} thy God.{H430}

For a small{H6996} moment{H7281} have I forsaken{H5800} thee; but with great{H1419} mercies{H7356} will I gather{H6908} thee.

In overflowing{H8241} wrath{H7110} I hid{H5641} my face{H6440} from thee for a moment;{H7281} but with everlasting{H5769} lovingkindness{H2617} will I have mercy{H7355} on thee, saith{H559} Jehovah{H3068} thy Redeemer.{H1350}

For this is [as] the waters{H4325} of Noah{H5146} unto me; for as I have sworn{H7650} that the waters{H4325} of Noah{H5146} shall no more go over{H5674} the earth,{H776} so have I sworn{H7650} that I will not be wroth{H7107} with thee, nor rebuke{H1605} thee.

For the mountains{H2022} may depart,{H4185} and the hills{H1389} be removed;{H4131} but my lovingkindness{H2617} shall not depart{H4185} from thee, neither shall my covenant{H1285} of peace{H7965} be removed,{H4131} saith{H559} Jehovah{H3068} that hath mercy{H7355} on thee.

O thou afflicted,{H6041} tossed with tempest,{H5590} and not comforted,{H5162} behold, I will set{H7257} thy stones{H68} in fair colors,{H6320} and lay thy foundations{H3245} with sapphires.{H5601}

And I will make{H7760} thy pinnacles{H8121} of rubies,{H3539} and thy gates{H8179} of carbuncles,{H68} and all thy border{H1366} of precious{H2656} stones.{H68}

And all thy children{H1121} shall be taught{H3928} of Jehovah;{H3068} and great{H7227} shall be the peace{H7965} of thy children.{H1121}

In righteousness{H6666} shalt thou be established:{H3559} thou shalt be far{H7368} from oppression,{H6233} for thou shalt not fear;{H3372} and from terror,{H4288} for it shall not come near{H7126} thee.

Behold, they may{H1481} gather together,{H1481} but not{H657} by me: whosoever{H4310} shall gather together{H1481} against thee shall fall{H5307} because of thee.

Behold, I have created{H1254} the smith{H2796} that bloweth{H5301} the fire{H784} of coals,{H6352} and bringeth forth{H3318} a weapon{H3627} for his work;{H4639} and I have created{H1254} the waster{H7843} to destroy.{H2254}

No weapon{H3627} that is formed{H3335} against thee shall prosper;{H6743} and every tongue{H3956} that shall rise{H6965} against thee in judgment{H4941} thou shalt condemn.{H7561} This is the heritage{H5159} of the servants{H5650} of Jehovah,{H3068} and their righteousness{H6666} which is of me, saith{H5002} Jehovah.{H3068}
