The Book of Isaiah 26

26 On that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah:

We have a strong city,

he has made salvation

its walls and ramparts.

2 Open the gates,

that the righteous nation, keeper of faith, may enter in.

3 The mind supported, you guard in peace—peace!—

for he trusts in you.

4 Trust in Yahweh forever;

for in Yah, Yahweh, is an everlasting rock.

5 For he will bring down

the inhabitants on high,

the fortified city.

He will it lay low,

he will lay it low to the ground,

he will level it to the dust.

6 It will be trampled down by foot,

the feet of the poor,

the steps of the needy.

7 The way for the righteous is level, Righteous One;

the path of the righteous you flatten.

8 Yes, in the path of your judgments,

Yahweh, we wait for you;

your name and your reputation

are the delight of the spirit.

9 With my soul, I have longed for you in the night;

Indeed, my spirit within me seeks you earnestly.

For when your judgments are on the earth,

the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

10 Let the wicked be favored;

he will not learn righteousness:

In the land of uprightness he acts wickedly

and does not see the majesty of Yahweh.

11 Yahweh, when your hand is lifted up,

they do not perceive.

Let them see and be ashamed by the zeal for the people,

by the fire consuming your adversaries.

12 Yahweh, you will establish peace for us,

for you have indeed accomplished all our works for us.

13 Yahweh our God, lords besides you have ruled us;

only by you we recognize your name.

14 They are dead, they will not live;

they are deceased, they will not arise.

Indeed, you visited and destroyed them,

and eradicated every memory of them.

15 You have increased the nation, Yahweh,

you have increased the nation; you are honored;

you have extended all the borders of the land.

16 Yahweh, in distress they visited you with uttered prayers,

your discipline was on them.

17 As a pregnant woman nearing birth

writhes and cries out in labor pains,

so we have been before your face, Yahweh.

18 We have been pregnant, we have been in labor,

as if we have birthed wind.

We have not brought salvation to the earth,

and the inhabitants of the world have not fallen.

19 Your dead will live; their corpses will arise.

Awake and sing for joy, dwellers of the dust,

for your dew is the dew of light,

and the earth will release the dead.

20 Go, my people, enter into your rooms,

and shut your doors behind you;

hide a little while,

until the fury has passed by.

21 For behold, Yahweh is about to come out of his place

to charge the iniquity of the inhabitants of the earth against it,

and the earth will uncover her bloodshed,

and will no longer cover over her slain.
