Isaiah 26:7-9

New International Reader's Version

⁷ The path of godly people is level.
    You are the God who does what is right.
    You make their way smooth.
⁸ Lord, we are living the way your laws command us to live.
    We are waiting for you to act.
We want your honor and fame to be known.
⁹ My heart longs for you at night.
    My spirit longs for you in the morning.
You will come and judge the earth.
    Then the people of the world will learn to do what is right.
