Isaiah 26:17-19

English Standard Version Anglicised

^17 (A)Like a pregnant woman
    who writhes and cries out in her pangs
    when she is near to giving birth,
so were we because of you, O Lord;
^{18     (B)}we were pregnant, we writhed,
    but we have given birth to wind.
We have accomplished no deliverance in the earth,
    and the inhabitants of the world have not fallen.
^19 (C)Your dead shall live; their bodies shall rise.
    You who dwell in the dust, awake and sing for joy!
For ^(D)your dew is a dew of light,
    and the earth will give birth to the dead.
