Isaiah 26:16-19

16LORD, they came to you in their distress; when you disciplined them, they could barely whisper a prayer. The meaning of the Hebrew for this clause is uncertain.

17As a pregnant woman about to give birth writhes and cries out in her pain, so were we in your presence, LORD .

18We were with child, we writhed in labor, but we gave birth to wind. We have not brought salvation to the earth, and the people of the world have not come to life.

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