Isaiah 54:1-3

Context
Zion Will Be Secure

54:1 “Shout for joy, O barren one who has not given birth!

Give a joyful shout and cry out, you who have not been in labor!

For the children of the desolate one are more numerous

than the children of the married woman,” says the Lord.

54:2 Make your tent larger,

stretch your tent curtains farther out! 1 

Spare no effort,

lengthen your ropes,

and pound your stakes deep. 2 

54:3 For you will spread out to the right and to the left;

your children will conquer 3  nations

and will resettle desolate cities.
