‏ Isaiah 49:19-20

v. 19: The land that was empty and ruined will become full of people again. Your waste and desolate places... shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants . There will be so many new people that there is not enough room. God will drive away the enemies, and only his people will remain (Malachi 3:10 a).

v. 20: The children born after Zion’s troubles will say, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell . The church will grow so much that there will not seem to be enough space for everyone, just as happened in ancient Israel (2 Kings 6:1; Luke 14:21,22 b).
