Isaiah 26:12
Verse 12 of 21. The 26th of 66 chapters in Isaiah, in The Major Prophets.
8Yes, in the way of your judgments, LORD, we have waited for you. Your name and your renown are the desire of our soul.
9With my soul I have desired you in the night. Yes, with my spirit within me I will seek you earnestly; for when your judgments are on the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
10Let favor be shown to the wicked, yet he will not learn righteousness. In the land of uprightness he will deal wrongfully, and will not see the LORD’s majesty.
11LORD, your hand is lifted up, yet they don’t see; but they will see your zeal for the people and be disappointed. Yes, fire will consume your adversaries.
12LORD, you will ordain peace for us, for you have also done all our work for us.
13LORD our God, other lords besides you have had dominion over us, but we will only acknowledge your name.
14The dead shall not live. The departed spirits shall not rise. Therefore you have visited and destroyed them, and caused all memory of them to perish.
15You have increased the nation, O LORD. You have increased the nation! You are glorified! You have enlarged all the borders of the land.
16LORD, in trouble they have visited you. They poured out a prayer when your chastening was on them.
