Isaiah 26:9KJV

Protestant Bible · KJV · Verse 9 of 21

"With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness."
Isaiah 26:9

In context

7The way of the just uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.

8Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O LORD, have we waited for thee; the desire of soul to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee.

9With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

10Let favour be shewed to the wicked, will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the LORD.

11LORD, thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: they shall see, and be ashamed for envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.
