Isaiah 26:16-18
Names of God Bible
16 O Yahweh, the people have come to you in trouble.
They were humbled by oppression, by your discipline upon them.[a]
17 O Yahweh, when we are with you,
we are like pregnant women ready to give birth.
They writhe and cry out in their labor pains.
18 We were pregnant; we writhed with labor pains
only to give birth to the wind.
We weren’t able to bring salvation to the land,
and no new people were born on earth.
