Isaiah 26:16-19

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁶ LORD, in the tribulation they have sought thee, they poured out prayer when thy chastening was upon them.

¹⁷ Like as a woman with child, that draws near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and cries out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O LORD.

¹⁸ We have conceived, we have had birth pangs; we have, as it were, brought forth wind; we have not wrought any health in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.

¹⁹ Thy dead shall live, and together with my body they shall arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the covering of light, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
