19 Your (A)dead will live;
[a]Their corpses will rise.
You who lie in the dust, (B)awake and shout for joy,
For your dew is as the dew of the [b]dawn,
And the earth will [c]give birth to the [d]departed spirits.

20 Come, my people, (C)enter your rooms
And close your doors behind you;
Hide for a little [e](D)while
Until (E)indignation [f]runs its course.
21 For behold, the Lord is about to (F)come out from His place
To (G)punish the inhabitants of the earth for their wrongdoing;
And the earth will (H)reveal her bloodshed
And will no longer cover her slain.
