Isaiah 26:12-14

Contemporary English Version

¹² You will give us peace, Lord,
because everything we have done
    was by your power.
¹³ Others have ruled over us
besides you, our Lord God,
    but we obey only you.
¹⁴ Those enemies are now dead
    and can never live again.
You have punished them—
they are destroyed,
    completely forgotten.
