Yahweh continues speaking to Zion as if it were a person. ## Who has borne these children for me? ## Zion uses a question to emphasize that she is surprised that so many children now belong to her. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]]) ## I was bereaved and barren ## "I was mourning over my dead children and unable to have more" ## exiled and divorced ## "I was sent away, without a husband" ## Who has raised these children? Look, I was left all alone; where did these come from? ## Again, Zion uses questions to emphasize her surprise. AT: "Look, I was left all alone; now all of these children that I did not raise have come to me." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
