Isaiah 49:13
Break forth into singing, O mountains "Ye mountains, burst forth into song" - Three ancient MSS. are without the yod or the conjunction vau before the verb: and so the Septuagint, Syriac, and Vulgate.
12 Surely athese shall come from afar;
Look! Those from the north and the west,
And these from the land of Sinim.”
Look! Those from the north and the west,
And these from the land of Sinim.”
13 aSing, O heavens!
Be joyful, O earth!
And break out in singing, O mountains!
For the Lord has comforted His people,
And will have mercy on His afflicted.
Be joyful, O earth!
And break out in singing, O mountains!
For the Lord has comforted His people,
And will have mercy on His afflicted.
God Will Remember Zion
15 “Cana a woman forget her nursing child,
1And not have compassion on the son of her womb?
Surely they may forget,
bYet I will not forget you.

bYet I will not forget you.
18 aLift up your eyes, look around and see;
All these gather together and come to you.
As I live,” says the Lord,
“You shall surely clothe yourselves with them all bas an ornament,
And bind them on you as a bride does.

19 “For your waste and desolate places,
And the land of your destruction,
aWill even now be too small for the inhabitants;
And those who swallowed you up will be far away.
And the land of your destruction,
aWill even now be too small for the inhabitants;
And those who swallowed you up will be far away.
20 aThe children you will have,
bAfter you have lost the others,
Will say again in your ears,
‘The place is too small for me;
Give me a place where I may dwell.’
bAfter you have lost the others,
Will say again in your ears,
‘The place is too small for me;
Give me a place where I may dwell.’
21 Then you will say in your heart,
‘Who has begotten these for me,
Since I have lost my children and am desolate,
A captive, and wandering to and fro?
And who has brought these up?
There I was, left alone;
But these, where were they?’ ”
‘Who has begotten these for me,

22 aThus says the Lord God:
“Behold, I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations,
And set up My1 standard for the peoples;
They shall bring your sons in their1 arms,
And your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders;
“Behold, I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations,
And set up My1 standard for the peoples;
They shall bring your sons in their1 arms,
And your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders;
23 aKings shall be your foster fathers,
And their queens your nursing mothers;
They shall bow down to you with their faces to the earth,
And blick up the dust of your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord,
cFor they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me.”
And their queens your nursing mothers;
They shall bow down to you with their faces to the earth,
And blick up the dust of your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord,
cFor they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me.”
