Isaiah 26:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night, and with my spirit within me will I seek thee in the morning: for seeing thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world shall learn [a]righteousness.
10 Let mercy [b]be showed to the wicked, yet he will not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he do wickedly, and will not behold the majesty of the Lord.
11 O Lord, they will not behold thine high hand: but they shall see it, and be confounded with [c]the zeal of the people, and the fire of thine [d]enemies shall devour them.
