Isaiah 26:11-15 The Message (MSG)

You hold your hand up high, God,but they don’t see it.Open their eyes to what you do,to see your zealous love for your people.Shame them. Light a fire under them.Get the attention of these enemies of yours.God, order a peaceful and whole life for usbecause everything we’ve done, you’ve done for us.O God, our God, we’ve had other masters rule us,but you’re the only Master we’ve ever known.The dead don’t talk,ghosts don’t walk,Because you’ve said, “Enough—that’s all for you,”and wiped them off the books.But the living you make larger than life.The more life you give, the more glory you display,and stretch the borders to accommodate more living!
