Yesaya 33:20

33:20 Look at Zion, the city where we hold religious festivals!

You ¹  will see Jerusalem, ² 

a peaceful settlement,

a tent that stays put; ³ 

its stakes will never be pulled up;

none of its ropes will snap in two.

Yesaya 49:19-20

49:19 Yes, your land lies in ruins;

it is desolate and devastated. ⁴ 

But now you will be too small to hold your residents,

and those who devoured you will be far away.

49:20 Yet the children born during your time of bereavement

will say within your hearing,

‘This place is too cramped for us, ⁵ 

make room for us so we can live here.’ ⁶
