Isaiah 26:18-20

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁸ Yes, it seemed like we were pregnant and ready to give birth. But we could only give birth to wind! We could not do anything to make the land safe. We have no descendants who will bring new life to the world.

¹⁹ But Lord, your people who have died will live again. Their bodies will rise up from their graves. You people who live in the ground, wake up! Shout because you are happy. You bring new life to the earth, like dew that comes in the morning. Dead people will come up from the earth and they will live again.

²⁰ My people, go into your homes. Shut the doors and hide yourselves for a short time. Wait there until the Lord is not angry any more.
