Isaiah 26 : 9 - 20
Chapter 26
9 | With my soul I have desired You in the night, Yes, by my spirit within me I will seek You early; For when Your judgments are in the earth, The inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. |
10 | Let grace be shown to the wicked, Yet he will not learn righteousness; In the land of uprightness he will deal unjustly, And will not behold the majesty of the LORD. |
11 | LORD, when Your hand is lifted up, they will not see. But they will see and be ashamed For their envy of people; Yes, the fire of Your enemies shall devour them. |
12 | LORD, You will establish peace for us, For You have also done all our works in us. |
13 | O LORD our God, masters besides You Have had dominion over us; But by You only we make mention of Your name. |
14 | They are dead, they will not live; They are deceased, they will not rise. Therefore You have punished and destroyed them, And made all their memory to perish. |
15 | You have increased the nation, O LORD, You have increased the nation; You are glorified; You have expanded all the borders of the land. |
16 | LORD, in trouble they have visited You, They poured out a prayer when Your chastening was upon them. |
17 | As a woman with child Is in pain and cries out in her pangs, When she draws near the time of her delivery, So have we been in Your sight, O LORD. |
18 | We have been with child, we have been in pain; We have, as it were, brought forth wind; We have not accomplished any deliverance in the earth, Nor have the inhabitants of the world fallen. |
19 | Your dead shall live; Together with my dead body they shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in dust; For your dew is like the dew of herbs, And the earth shall cast out the dead. |
20 | Come, my people, enter your chambers, And shut your doors behind you; Hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment, Until the indignation is past. |
