Isaiah 26:18-20
New Catholic Bible
18 We were with child and writhed with pain,
but we gave birth only to wind.
We have achieved no salvation for the earth,
and no one has been born to inhabit the world.
19 But your dead will live
and their bodies will rise again.
Awake and sing for joy,
you who sleep in the dust.
For your dew will be radiant,
and the earth will give birth again
to those who have long been dead.
The Lord’s Vindication
20 Go forth, my people, enter your chambers,
and shut your doors behind you.
Withdraw for a short while
until the wrath has subsided.
