18 We were pregnant and groaned with pain.
    But nothing was born.
We didn’t bring your saving power to the earth.
    And the people of the world have not come to life.

19 Lord, your people who have died will live again.
    Their bodies will rise from the dead.
Let those who lie in the grave
    wake up and shout for joy.
You give life, Lord, like the dew of the morning.
    So the earth will give up its dead people.

20 My people, go into your houses.
    Shut the doors behind you.
Hide yourselves for a little while.
    Do it until the Lord’s anger is over.
