Isaiah 26:7-9

Easy-to-Read Version

⁷ Honesty is the path good people follow.
    They follow the path that is straight and true.
And God, you make that way smooth
    and easy to follow.
⁸ But, Lord, we are waiting for your way of justice.
    We want to honor you and your name.
⁹ At night my soul longs to be with you,
    and the spirit in me wants to be with you at the dawn of every new day.
When your way of justice comes to the world,
    people will learn the right way of living.
