Isaiah 26
26:1

In that day3117 shall this song7892 be sung7891 in the land776 of Judah;3063 We have a strong5797 city;5892 salvation3444 will Elohim appoint7896 for walls2346 and bulwarks.2426

26:2

Open6605 ye the gates,8179 that the righteous6662 nation1471 which keepeth8104 the truth529 may enter in.935

26:3

Thou wilt keep5341 him in perfect7965 peace,7965 whose mind3336 is stayed5564 on thee: because he trusteth982 in thee.

26:4

Trust982 ye in Yahweh3068 for ever:5703 for in Yah3050 YAHWEH3068 is everlasting5769 strength:6697

26:5

For he bringeth down7817 them that dwell3427 on high;4791 the lofty7682 city,7151 he layeth it low;8213 he layeth it low,8213 even to the ground;776 he bringeth5060 it even to the dust.6083

26:6

The foot7272 shall tread it down,7429 even the feet7272 of the poor,6041 and the steps6471 of the needy.1800

26:7

The way734 of the just6662 is uprightness:4339 thou, most upright,3477 dost weigh6424 the path4570 of the just.6662

26:8

Yea, in the way734 of thy judgments,4941 O Yahweh,3068 have we waited6960 for thee; the desire8378 of our soul5315 is to thy name,8034 and to the remembrance2143 of thee.

26:9

With my soul5315 have I desired183 thee in the night;3915 yea, with my spirit7307 within7130 me will I seek thee early:7836 for when thy judgments4941 are in the earth,776 the inhabitants3427 of the world8398 will learn3925 righteousness.6664

26:10

Let favour be shewed2603 to the wicked,7563 yet will he not1077 learn3925 righteousness:6664 in the land776 of uprightness5229 will he deal unjustly,5765 and will not1077 behold7200 the majesty1348 of Yahweh.3068

26:11

Yahweh,3068 when thy hand3027 is lifted up,7311 they will not see:2372 but they shall see,2372 and be ashamed954 for their envy7068 at the people;5971 yea, the fire784 of thine enemies6862 shall devour398 them.

26:12

Yahweh,3068 thou wilt ordain8239 peace7965 for us: for thou also hast wrought6466 all our works4639 in us.

26:13

O Yahweh3068 our Elohim,430 other sovereigns113 beside2108 thee have had dominion1166 over us: but by thee only will we make mention2142 of thy name.8034

26:14

They are dead,4191 they shall not live;2421 they are deceased,7496 they shall not rise:6965 therefore hast thou visited6485 and destroyed8045 them, and made all their memory2143 to perish.6

26:15

Thou hast increased3254 the nation,1471 O Yahweh,3068 thou hast increased3254 the nation:1471 thou art glorified:3513 thou hadst removed it far7368 unto all the ends7099 of the earth.776

26:16

Yahweh,3068 in trouble6862 have they visited6485 thee, they poured out6694 a prayer3908 when thy chastening4148 was upon them.

26:17

Like3644 as a woman with child,2030 that draweth near7126 the time of her delivery,3205 is in pain,2342 and crieth out2199 in her pangs;2256 so have we been in thy sight,6440 O Yahweh.3068

26:18

We have been with child,2029 we have been in pain,2342 we have as it were3644 brought forth3205 wind;7307 we have not1077 wrought6213 any deliverance3444 in the earth;776 neither1077 have the inhabitants3427 of the world8398 fallen.5307

26:19

Thy dead4191 men shall live,2421 together with my dead body5038 shall they arise.6965 Awake6974 and sing,7442 ye that dwell7931 in dust:6083 for thy dew2919 is as the dew2919 of herbs,219 and the earth776 shall cast out5307 the dead.7496

26:20

Come,3212 my people,5971 enter935 thou into thy chambers,2315 and shut5462 thy doors1817 about thee: hide2247 thyself as it were for a little4592 moment,7281 until the indignation2195 be overpast.5674

26:21

For, behold, Yahweh3068 cometh out3318 of his place4725 to punish6485 the inhabitants3427 of the earth776 for their iniquity:5771 the earth776 also shall disclose1540 her blood,1818 and shall no more cover3680 her slain.2026
