Isaiah 26:14

Yahweh's People Vindicated

¹³
O Lord our God, other masters besides You have ruled over us;
But through You alone we confess Your name.
¹⁴ 
The [wicked] dead will not live [again], the spirits of the dead will not rise and return;
Therefore You have punished and destroyed them,
And You have wiped out every memory of them [every trace of them].
¹⁵
You have increased the nation, O Lord;
You have increased the nation, You are glorified;
You have extended all the borders of the land.
