19 Your dead will live again;
    their bodies will rise from death.
You who ·lie in the ground [L dwell in the dust],
    wake up and ·be happy [shout joyfully]!
·The dew covering you [L Your dew] is ·like the dew of a new day [L a dew of lights];
    the ·ground [earth] will give birth to the dead.

Judgment: Reward or Punishment

20 My people, go into your ·rooms [chambers; inner rooms]
    and shut your doors behind you.
Hide in your rooms for a short time
    until God’s anger ·is finished [has passed by].
21 [L For look/T behold] The Lord ·will leave [is coming out of] his place
    to punish the ·people [inhabitants] of the world for their sins.
The earth will ·show [reveal; disclose] ·the blood of the people who have been killed [L its blood];
    it will not cover ·the dead [its slain] any longer.
