Isaiah 26:9 in Context — Isaiah 26

7 El camino del justo es rectitud: Tú, Recto, pesas el camino del justo.

8 También en el camino de tus juicios, oh Jehová, te hemos esperado: á tu nombre y á tu memoria es el deseo del alma.

9 Con mi alma te he deseado en la noche; y en tanto que me durare el espíritu en medio de mí, madrugaré á buscarte: porque luego que hay juicios tuyos en la tierra, los moradores del mundo aprenden justicia.

10 Alcanzará piedad el impío, y no aprenderá justicia; en tierra de rectitud hará iniquidad, y no mirará á la majestad de Jehová.

11 Jehová, bien que se levante tu mano, no ven: verán [al cabo], y se avergonzarán los que envidian á [tu] pueblo; y á tus enemigos fuego los consumirá.
