Isaiah 66:8 Context
6A voice of noyse from the city, a voice from the Temple, a voice of the Lord, that rendreth recompense to his enemies. 7Before she trauailed, she brought foorth: before her paine came, shee was deliuered of a man childe. 8Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seene such things? shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day, or shall a nation be borne at once? for as soone as Zion traueiled, shee brought foorth her children. 9Shall I bring to the birth, & not cause to bring forth, saith the Lord ? shall I cause to bring foorth, and shut the wombe, sayth thy God? 10Reioyce ye with Ierusalem, and be glad with her, all yee that loue her: reioyce for ioy with her, all yee that mourne for her:
