Isaiah 26:19

19 Those of our people who have died will live again!
Their bodies will come back to life.
All those sleeping in their graves
will wake up and sing for joy.
As the sparkling dew refreshes the earth,
so the Lord will revive those who have long been dead.

God gave these to me. But his laws mean more to me than my hands, and I know God will give them back to me again.
