Isaiah 26:14-16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 Dead they are, they cannot live,
shades that cannot rise;
Indeed, you have punished and destroyed them,
and wiped out all memory of them.
15 You have increased the nation, Lord,
you have increased the nation, have added to your glory,
you have extended far all the boundaries of the land.(A)
16 Lord, oppressed by your punishment,
we cried out in anguish under your discipline.(B)
