Isaiah 26:9 (WEB)
Context Reading
7The way of the just is uprightness.You who are upright make the path of the righteous level. 8Yes, in the way of your judgments, Yahweh, 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 in 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 Yahweh’s majesty. 11Yahweh, 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.
