Isaiah 26:8-10
New Life Version
8 While following in Your ways, O Lord, we have waited for You. To remember You and Your name is the desire of our souls. 9 My soul has a desire for You in the night. Yes, my spirit within me looks for You in the morning. For when you punish the earth, the people of the world learn what is right and good. 10 When favor is shown to the sinful, he does not learn what is right and good. He goes on doing what is wrong in the land of those who are right. He does not see the wonderful power of the Lord.

Isaiah 26:8-10
New International Version
8 Yes, Lord, walking in the way of your laws,[a](A)
we wait(B) for you;
your name(C) and renown
are the desire of our hearts.
9 My soul yearns for you in the night;(D)
in the morning my spirit longs(E) for you.
When your judgments(F) come upon the earth,
the people of the world learn righteousness.(G)
10 But when grace is shown to the wicked,(H)
they do not learn righteousness;
even in a land of uprightness they go on doing evil(I)
and do not regard(J) the majesty of the Lord.
