Isaiah 26:18-20
Contemporary English Version
18 But instead of having a child,
our terrible pain
produced only wind.
We have won no victories,
and we have no descendants
to take over the earth.
19 Your people will rise to life!
Tell them to leave their graves
and celebrate with shouts.
You refresh the earth
like morning dew;
you give life to the dead.
20 Go inside and lock the doors,
my people.
Hide there for a little while,
until the Lord
is no longer angry.
Isaiah 26:18-20
New International Version
18 We were with child, we writhed in labor,
but we gave birth(A) to wind.
We have not brought salvation(B) to the earth,
and the people of the world have not come to life.(C)
