The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell.

The verse 20 is found in chapter 49 of Isaiah. Zion feels abandoned, but God responds by comparing himself to a mother who cannot forget the child she nurses. Restoration is represented through returning children and nations participating in rebuilding. God’s power is demonstrated as oppressors lose what they had taken and the people recover their identity.

daß die Kinder deiner Unfruchtbarkeit werden noch sagen vor deinen Ohren: Der Raum ist mir zu eng; rücke hin, daß ich bei dir wohnen möge.
Aun los hijos de tu orfandad dirán a tus oídos: Angosto es para mí este lugar; apártate por amor de mí, para que yo more.
Todavía te dirán al oído los hijos de los que habías sido privada: “Este lugar es demasiado estrecho para mí; hazme sitio para que yo habite”.
Ils répéteront à tes oreilles, Ces fils dont tu fus privée: L'espace est trop étroit pour moi; Fais-moi de la place, pour que je puisse m'établir.
Ancora ti diranno i figliuoli che tu avrai, dopo che sarai stata orbata degli altri: Questo luogo è troppo stretto per me; fattimi in là, che io possa abitare.
E até mesmo os filhos da tua orfandade dirão aos teus ouvidos: Muito estreito é para mim este lugar; aparta-te de mim, para que possa habitar nele.
你要再聽見喪失子女後所生的兒女說: 「這地方我居住太窄, 請你給我地方居住。」
