Isaiah 26:9-11
Complete Jewish Bible
9 My soul desires you at night,
my spirit in me seeks you at dawn;
for when your judgments are here on earth,
the people in the world learn what righteousness is.
10 Even if pity is shown to the wicked,
he still doesn’t learn what righteousness is.
In a land of uprightness he will still act wrongly
and fail to see the majesty of Adonai.
11 Adonai, you raised your hand,
but they still didn’t see.
Yet with shame they will see your zeal for the people.
Yes, fire will destroy your enemies.
Isaiah 26:9-11
New International Version
9 My soul yearns for you in the night;(A)
in the morning my spirit longs(B) for you.
When your judgments(C) come upon the earth,
the people of the world learn righteousness.(D)
10 But when grace is shown to the wicked,(E)
they do not learn righteousness;
even in a land of uprightness they go on doing evil(F)
and do not regard(G) the majesty of the Lord.
11 Lord, your hand is lifted high,(H)
but they do not see(I) it.
Let them see your zeal(J) for your people and be put to shame;(K)
let the fire(L) reserved for your enemies consume them.
Isaiah 26:9-11
King James Version
9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.
10 Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the Lord.
11 Lord, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.
