Isaiah 26:18-20
EasyEnglish Bible

18 Yes, it seemed like we were pregnant and ready to give birth. But we could only give birth to wind! We could not do anything to make the land safe. We have no descendants who will bring new life to the world.

19 But Lord, your people who have died will live again. Their bodies will rise up from their graves. You people who live in the ground, wake up! Shout because you are happy. You bring new life to the earth, like dew that comes in the morning. Dead people will come up from the earth and they will live again.

20 My people, go into your homes. Shut the doors and hide yourselves for a short time. Wait there until the Lord is not angry any more.

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)

19 But your dead(D) will live, Lord;
    their bodies will rise—
let those who dwell in the dust(E)
    wake up and shout for joy—
your dew(F) is like the dew of the morning;
    the earth will give birth to her dead.(G)

20 Go, my people, enter your rooms
    and shut the doors(H) behind you;
hide(I) yourselves for a little while
    until his wrath(J) has passed by.(K)
