The verse 23 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.
