American Standard Version
Isaiah 26:16-19
American Standard Version
16 Jehovah, in trouble have they [a]visited thee; they poured out a [b]prayer when thy chastening was upon them. 17 Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain and crieth out in her pangs; so we have been [c]before thee, O Jehovah. 18 We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; [d]neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen. 19 Thy dead shall live; my dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in the dust; for thy dew is as the dew of [e]herbs, and the earth shall cast forth [f]the dead.
