Isaiah 26:18-20
New King James Version
18 We have been with child, we have been in pain;
We have, as it were, [a]brought forth wind;
We have not accomplished any deliverance in the earth,
Nor have (A)the inhabitants of the world fallen.
19 (B)Your dead shall live;
Together with [b]my dead body they shall arise.
(C)Awake and sing, you who dwell in dust;
For your dew is like the dew of herbs,
And the earth shall cast out the dead.
Take Refuge from the Coming Judgment
20 Come, my people, (D)enter your chambers,
And shut your doors behind you;
Hide yourself, as it were, (E)for a little moment,
Until the indignation is past.

New International Version
18 We were with child, we writhed in labor,
but we gave birth(A) to wind.
We have not brought salvation(B) to the earth,
and the people of the world have not come to life.(C)
