Isaiah 54:1-2

New International Reader's Version

54 “Jerusalem, sing!
    You are now like a woman who never had a child.
Burst into song! Shout for joy!
    You who have never had labor pains,
you are now all alone.
    But you will have more children than a woman who still has a husband,”
    says the Lord.
² “Make a large area for your tent.
    Spread out its curtains.
    Go ahead and make your tent wider.
Make its ropes longer.
    Drive the stakes down deeper.
