Isaiah 26:14-16

New American Standard Bible 1995

^14 (A)The dead will not live, the ^[a]departed spirits will not rise;
Therefore You have ^(B)punished and destroyed them,
And You have wiped out all remembrance of them.
^15 (C)You have increased the nation, O Lord,
You have increased the nation, You are glorified;
You have ^(D)extended all the borders of the land.
¹⁶ O Lord, they sought You ^(E)in distress;
They ^[b]could only whisper a prayer,
Your chastening was upon them.
