7“Before she was in labor, she gave birth; before she was in pain, she delivered a boy. 8Whohas heardof such as this?Whohas seensuch things?Can a countrybe bornin adayora nationbe deliveredin an instant?Yetas soon as Zionwas in labor,she gave birth toher children.9Shall I bring a baby to the point of birth and not deliver it?” says the LORD. “Or will I who deliver close the womb?” says your God.…-Isaiah 66:7-9
