"Therefore strengthen the weak hands, and make strong the feeble knees, Say to those who are fearful hearted, 'Be strong, do not fear Enlarge the place of your tent, ...stretch out the curtains of your habitations. Do not spare; Lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes For you shall expand to the right and to the left, and your descendants will inherit the nations, and make the desolate cities inhabited. Do not fear for you will no longer be ashamed; nor be disgraced any more, for you will not be put to shame (You will not become weak and fail); For you will forget the shame of your youth (your immaturity), ...and will not remember that reproach anymore..." - Isaiah 35:3 & 4, and Isaiah 54:2-4
