Isaiah 26:15-17
New King James Version

15 You have increased the nation, O Lord,
You have (A)increased the nation;
You are glorified;
You have expanded all the [a]borders of the land.

16 Lord, (B)in trouble they have visited You,
They poured out a prayer when Your chastening was upon them.
17 As (C)a woman with child
Is in pain and cries out in her [b]pangs,
When she draws near the time of her delivery,
So have we been in Your sight, O Lord.

New International Version

15 You have enlarged the nation, Lord;
    you have enlarged the nation.(A)
You have gained glory for yourself;
    you have extended all the borders(B) of the land.

16 Lord, they came to you in their distress;(C)
    when you disciplined(D) them,
    they could barely whisper(E) a prayer.[a]
17 As a pregnant woman about to give birth(F)
    writhes and cries out in her pain,
    so were we in your presence, Lord.
