Isaiah 49:17 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Thy children; or, as others render it, thy builders; which is favoured by the next clause, where the destroyers are opposed to them. Howsoever, the sense is the same; for her children were her builders, as we read in Ezra and Nehemiah. Shall go forth of thee; shall be separated and driven from among thee, and so shall neither hinder nor annoy thee.

Isaiah 49:17

17 Thy children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth of thee.
