14[They are] dead, they shall not live; [they are] deceased, they shall not rise: therefore have you visited and destroyed them, and made all memory of them to perish.
15You have increased the nation, O Yahweh, you have increased the nation; you are glorified; you have enlarged all the borders of the land.
16Yahweh, in trouble have they visited you; they poured out a prayer [when] your chastening was on them.
17Like as a woman with child, who draws near the time of her delivery, is in pain and cries out in her pangs; so we have been before you, Yahweh.
18We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not worked any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
19Your dead shall live; my dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust; for your dew is [as] the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast forth the dead.
20Come, my people, enter you into your chambers, and shut your doors about you: hide yourself for a little moment, until the indignation be past.
