Isaiah 26:12-14

New Living Translation

¹² Lord, you will grant us peace;
    all we have accomplished is really from you.
¹³ O Lord our God, others have ruled us,
    but you alone are the one we worship.
¹⁴ Those we served before are dead and gone.
    Their departed spirits will never return!
You attacked them and destroyed them,
    and they are long forgotten.
