19 But Lord, your people who have died will live again. Their bodies will rise up from their graves. You people who live in the ground, wake up! Shout because you are happy. You bring new life to the earth, like dew that comes in the morning. Dead people will come up from the earth and they will live again.

20 My people, go into your homes. Shut the doors and hide yourselves for a short time. Wait there until the Lord is not angry any more. 21 Look! Now the Lord is coming from the place where he lives. He is coming to punish the people who live on the earth for their sins. The earth will clearly show the blood that murderers poured out on it. Murderers will no longer be able to hide the people that they have killed.

19 But your dead(A) will live, Lord;
    their bodies will rise—
let those who dwell in the dust(B)
    wake up and shout for joy—
your dew(C) is like the dew of the morning;
    the earth will give birth to her dead.(D)

20 Go, my people, enter your rooms
    and shut the doors(E) behind you;
hide(F) yourselves for a little while
    until his wrath(G) has passed by.(H)
21 See, the Lord is coming(I) out of his dwelling(J)
    to punish(K) the people of the earth for their sins.
The earth will disclose the blood(L) shed on it;
    the earth will conceal its slain no longer.
