Isaiah 26:11-18

11Jehovah, thy hand is lifted up, but they do not see: [yet] they shall see [thy] jealousy [for] the people, and be ashamed; yea, the fire which is for thine adversaries shall devour them.

12Jehovah, thou wilt ordain peace for us; for thou also hast wrought all our works for us.

13Jehovah our 1God, other lords than thee have had dominion over us; by thee only will we make mention of thy name.

14[They are] dead, they shall not live; deceased, they shall not rise: for thou hast visited and destroyed them, and made all memory of them to perish.

15Thou hast increased the nation, Jehovah, thou hast increased the nation: thou art glorified. Thou hadst removed [it] far [unto] all the ends of the earth.

16Jehovah, in trouble they sought thee; they poured out [their] whispered prayer when thy chastening was upon them.

17As a woman with child, that draweth near her delivery, is in travail, [and] crieth out in her pangs; so have we been before thee, Jehovah.

18We have been with child, we have been in travail, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought the deliverance of the land, neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
