Isaiah 26:15-17
New Catholic Bible
15 O Lord, you have enlarged the nation,
and in enlarging it you have been glorified;
you have extended all the frontiers of the country.
16 O Lord, in our distress we cried out to you,
pouring forth our prayers
as we suffered your chastisement.
17 As a woman who is pregnant
writhes and cries out in her agony
when her time of delivery is near,
so were we because of you, O Lord.
