Isaiah 26:9-11

Modern English Version

⁹ With my soul I have desired You in the night;
    my spirit within me seeks You diligently;
for when Your judgments are in the earth,
    the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
¹⁰ Though favor is shown to the wicked,
    yet he will not learn righteousness;
in the land of uprightness he deals unjustly
    and does not perceive the majesty of the Lord.
¹¹ Lord, Your hand is lifted up,
    but they do not see it.
They see Your zeal for the people and are put to shame;
    the fire of Your enemies shall devour them.
