Isaiah 26:13-19

13O Lord our God, other masters besides You have ruled over us; But through You alone we confess Your name.

14The [wicked] dead will not live [again], the spirits of the dead will not rise and return; Therefore You have punished and destroyed them, And You have wiped out every memory of them [every trace of them].

15You have increased the nation, O Lord; You have increased the nation, You are glorified; You have extended all the borders of the land.

16O Lord, they sought You in distress; They managed only a prayerful whisper When Your discipline was upon them.

17As a woman with child approaches the time to give birth, She is in pain and struggles and cries out in her labor, So we were before You, O Lord.

18We have been with child, we have twisted and struggled in labor; We gave birth, as it seems, only to wind. We could not accomplish salvation for the earth, Nor were inhabitants of the world born.

19Your dead will live; Their dead bodies will rise. You who lie in the dust, awake and shout for joy! For your dew is a dew of [celestial] light [heavenly, supernatural], And the earth will give birth to the spirits of the dead.
