19 But those who die in the Lord will live;
    their bodies will rise again!
Those who sleep in the earth
    will rise up and sing for joy!
For your life-giving light will fall like dew
    on your people in the place of the dead!

20 Go home, my people,
    and lock your doors!
Hide yourselves for a little while
    until the Lord’s anger has passed.
21 Look! The Lord is coming from heaven
    to punish the people of the earth for their sins.
The earth will no longer hide those who have been killed.
    They will be brought out for all to see.

    the earth will give birth to her dead.(D)

20 Go, my people, enter your rooms
    and shut the doors(E) behind you;
hide(F) yourselves for a little while
    until his wrath(G) has passed by.(H)
21 See, the Lord is coming(I) out of his dwelling(J)
    to punish(K) the people of the earth for their sins.
