Isaiah 26:18-20
Legacy Standard Bible
18 We were [a]with child, we writhed in labor;
We (A)gave birth, as it seems, only to wind.
We could not accomplish salvation for the earth,
And the (B)inhabitants of the world [b]were not born.
19 Your (C)dead will live;
[c]Their corpses will rise.
You who dwell in the dust, (D)awake and shout for joy,
For your dew is as the dew of the [d]dawn,
And the earth will [e]give birth to the [f]departed spirits.
20 Come, my people, (E)enter into your rooms
And close your doors behind you;
Hide for a little [g](F)while
Until (G)indignation passes by.
