Isaiah 26:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁷ The way of the righteous is level;
    O Just One, you make smooth the path of the righteous.
⁸ In the path of your judgements,
    O Lord, we wait for you;
your name and your renown
    are the soul’s desire.
⁹ My soul yearns for you in the night,
    my spirit within me earnestly seeks you.
For when your judgements are in the earth,
    the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
