The adversariesª° of the LORDª shall be broken to pieces;ª° out of heavenª shall he thunderª° upon¹ them: the LORDª shall judgeª° the endsª of the earth;ª and he shall giveª° strengthª unto his king,ª and exaltª° the hornª of his anointed.ª" {1Sm 2:1-10} + "He maketh the barren¹ woman² to keepª° house,ª [and to be] a joyfulª motherª of children.ª Praiseª° ye the LORD.ª" {Psa 113:9} + "Then¹ was our mouthª filledª° with laughter,ª and our tongueª with singing:ª then¹ saidª° they among the heathen,ª The LORDª hath doneª° great thingsª° for¹ them.¹" {Psa 126:2} + "Can a womanª forgetª° her sucking child,ª that she should not have compassionª°¹ on the sonª of her womb?ª yea,¹ they¹ may forget,ª° yet will I¹ not¹ forgetª° thee." {Isa 49:15} + "Then shalt thou sayª° in thine heart,ª Who¹ hath begottenª° me¹ these,¹ seeing I¹ have lost my children,²°¹ and am desolate,ª a captive,ª° and removing to and fro?ª° and who¹ hath brought upª° these?¹ Behold,¹ I¹ was leftª° alone;¹ these,¹ whereª [had] they¹ [been]?" {Isa 49:21} + "Sing,ª° O barren,ª thou [that] didst not¹ bear;ª° break forthª° into singing,ª and cry aloud,ª° thou [that] didst not¹ travail with child:ª° for¹ moreª [are] the childrenª of the desolateª° than the childrenª¹ of the married wife,ª° saithª° the LORD.ª" {Isa 54:1} + "Andª Maryª said,ª° Myª soulª doth magnifyª° the¹ Lord,ª ... Asª he spakeª° toª ourª fathers,ª to Abraham,ª andª to hisª seedª for² ever.ª¹" {Lke 1:46-55} + "A womanª whenª she is in travailª° hathª° sorrow,ª becauseª herª hourª is come:ª° butª as soon asª she is deliveredª° of the¹ child,ª she rememberethª° no¹ more²¹ the¹ anguish,ª forª joyª thatª a manª is bornª° intoª the¹ world.ª ... Andª yeª² nowª thereforeª¹ haveª° sorrow:ª butª I will seeª° youª again,ª andª yourª heartª shall rejoice,ª° andª yourª joyª no manª takethª° fromª you.ª" {Jhn 16:21-22} + "Forª it is written,ª° Rejoice,ª° [thou] barrenª that bearestª° not;ª break forthª° andª cry,ª° thou that travailestª° not:ª forª the¹ desolateª hath¹ many¹ more²¹ childrenª thanª² she which hathª° an husband.ª ... Nowª we,ª brethren,ª asª° Isaacª was,² areª° the childrenª of promise.ª" {Gal 4:27-28} + "Through faithª alsoª Saraª herselfª receivedª° strengthª toª conceiveª seed,ª andª was delivered of a childª° when she was past² age,ªª¹ becauseª she judgedª° him faithfulª who had promised.ª°" {Hbr 11:11}
