Isaiah 26:16-18
Revised Standard Version
Isaiah 26:16-18
Revised Standard Version
16 O Lord, in distress they sought thee,
they poured out a prayer[a]
when thy chastening was upon them.
17 Like a woman with child,
who writhes and cries out in her pangs,
when she is near her time,
so were we because of thee, O Lord;
18 we were with child, we writhed,
we have as it were brought forth wind.
We have wrought no deliverance in the earth,
and the inhabitants of the world have not fallen.
