O LORD, you will ordain peace for us,
    for you have indeed done for us all our works.
  O LORD our God,
    other lords besides you have ruled over us,
    but your name alone we bring to remembrance.
  They are dead, they will not live;
    they are shades, they will not arise;
  to that end you have visited them with destruction
    and wiped out all remembrance of them.
  But you have increased the nation, O LORD,
    you have increased the nation; you are glorified;
    you have enlarged all the borders of the land.
  O LORD, in distress they sought you;
    they poured out a whispered prayer
    when your discipline was upon them.
  Like a pregnant woman
    who writhes and cries out in her pangs
    when she is near to giving birth,
  so were we because of you, O LORD;
    we were pregnant, we writhed,
    but we have given birth to wind.
  We have accomplished no deliverance in the earth,
    and the inhabitants of the world have not fallen.
  Your dead shall live; their bodies shall rise.
    You who dwell in the dust, awake and sing for joy!
  For your dew is a dew of light,
    and the earth will give birth to the dead.

(ESV)
