Isaiah 26:16-18
Amplified Bible
16
O Lord, they sought You in distress;
They managed only a prayerful whisper
When Your discipline was upon them.
17
As a woman with child approaches the time to give birth,
She is in pain and struggles and cries out in her labor,
So we were before You, O Lord.
18
We have been with child, we have twisted and struggled in labor;
We gave birth, as it seems, only to wind.
We could not accomplish salvation for the earth,
Nor were inhabitants of the world [a]born.
