“For you will spread out to the right and left; your descendants will dispossess the nations and inhabit the desolate cities.”
Isaiah 54:3 (BSB)
Context Reading
1“Shout for joy, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth in song and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband,” says the LORD. 2“Enlarge the site of your tent, stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, do not hold back. Lengthen your ropes and drive your stakes in deep. 3For you will spread out to the right and left; your descendants will dispossess the nations and inhabit the desolate cities. 4Do not be afraid, for you will not be put to shame; do not be intimidated, for you will not be humiliated. For you will forget the shame of your youth and will remember no more the reproach of your widowhood. 5For your husband is your Maker — the LORD of Hosts is His name — the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; He is called the God of all the earth.
