Isaiah 49:23
New English Translation

23 Kings will be your children’s[a] guardians;
their princesses will nurse your children.[b]
With their faces to the ground they will bow down to you,
and they will lick the dirt on[c] your feet.
Then you will recognize that I am the Lord;
those who wait patiently for me are not put to shame.
