Isaiah 26 (NET) New English Translation

1 At that time this song will be sung in the land of Judah: "We have a strong city! The LORD's deliverance, like walls and a rampart, makes it secure.
2 Open the gates so a righteous nation can enter— one that remains trustworthy.
3 You keep completely safe the people who maintain their faith, for they trust in you.
4 Trust in the LORD from this time forward, even in Yah, the LORD, an enduring protector!
5 Indeed, the LORD knocks down those who live in a high place, he brings down an elevated town; he brings it down to the ground, he throws it down to the dust.
6 It is trampled underfoot by the feet of the oppressed, by the soles of the poor."
7 The way of the righteous is level, the path of the righteous that you make is straight.
8 Yes, as your judgments unfold, O LORD, we wait for you. We desire your fame and reputation to grow.
9 I look for you during the night, my spirit within me seeks you at dawn, for when your judgments come upon the earth, those who live in the world learn about justice.
10 If the wicked are shown mercy, they do not learn about justice. Even in a land where right is rewarded, they act unjustly; they do not see the LORD's majesty revealed.
11 O LORD, you are ready to act, but they don't even notice. They will see and be put to shame by your angry judgment against humankind, yes, fire will consume your enemies.
12 O LORD, you make us secure, for even all we have accomplished, you have done for us.
13 O LORD, our God, masters other than you have ruled us, but we praise your name alone.
14 The dead do not come back to life, the spirits of the dead do not rise. That is because you came in judgment and destroyed them, you wiped out all memory of them.
15 You have made the nation larger, O LORD, you have made the nation larger and revealed your splendor, you have extended all the borders of the land.
16 O LORD, in distress they looked for you; they uttered incantations because of your discipline.
17 As when a pregnant woman gets ready to deliver and strains and cries out because of her labor pains, so were we because of you, O LORD.
18 We were pregnant, we strained, we gave birth, as it were, to wind. We cannot produce deliverance on the earth; people to populate the world are not born.
19 Your dead will come back to life; your corpses will rise up. Wake up and shout joyfully, you who live in the ground! For you will grow like plants drenched with the morning dew, and the earth will bring forth its dead spirits.
20 Go, my people! Enter your inner rooms! Close your doors behind you! Hide for a little while, until his angry judgment is over!
21 For look, the LORD is coming out of the place where he lives, to punish the sin of those who live on the earth. The earth will display the blood shed on it; it will no longer cover up its slain.
1 In that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS shall this H2088 D-PMS song H7892 be sung H7891 in the land H776 B-GFS of Judah H3063 ; We have a strong H5797 city H5892 GFS ; salvation H3444 will God appoint H7896 VQY3MS for walls H2346 and bulwarks H2426 .
2 Open H6605 ye the gates H8179 NMP , that the righteous H6662 AMS nation H1471 which keepeth H8104 the truth H529 may enter in H935 W-VQY3MS .
3 Thou wilt keep H5341 him in perfect peace H7965 NMS , whose mind H3336 CMS is stayed H5564 on thee : because H3588 CONJ he trusteth H982 in thee .
4 Trust H982 ye in the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS forever H5704 PREP : for H3588 CONJ in the LORD H3050 JEHOVAH H3068 EDS is everlasting H5769 strength H6697 NMS :
5 For H3588 CONJ he bringeth down H7817 them that dwell H3427 on high H4791 ; the lofty H7682 city H7151 NFS , he layeth it low H8213 ; he layeth it low H8213 , even to H5704 PREP the ground H776 GFS ; he bringeth H5060 it even to H5704 PREP the dust H6083 .
6 The foot H7272 GFS shall tread it down H7429 , even the feet H7272 of the poor H6041 AMS , and the steps H6471 of the needy H1800 .
7 The way H734 of the just H6662 is uprightness H4339 : thou , most upright H3477 AMS , dost weigh H6424 the path H4570 CMS of the just H6662 AMS .
8 Yea H637 CONJ , in the way H734 of thy judgments H4941 , O LORD H3068 EDS , have we waited H6960 for thee ; the desire H8378 of our soul H5315 GFS is to thy name H8034 , and to the remembrance H2143 of thee .
9 With my soul H5315 CFS-1MS have I desired H183 thee in the night H3915 ; yea H637 CONJ , with my spirit H7307 CFS-1MS within H7130 me will I seek thee early H7836 : for H3588 CONJ when H834 K-RPRO thy judgments H4941 are in the earth H776 LD-NFS , the inhabitants H3427 of the world H8398 will learn H3925 righteousness H6664 NMS .
10 Let favor be showed H2603 to the wicked H7563 AMS , yet will he not H1077 ADV learn H3925 righteousness H6664 NMS : in the land H776 B-GFS of uprightness H5229 will he deal unjustly H5765 , and will not H1077 behold H7200 VQY3MS the majesty H1348 of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
11 LORD H3068 EDS , when thy hand H3027 CFS-2MS is lifted up H5375 , they will not H1077 ADV see H2372 : but they shall see H2372 , and be ashamed H954 for their envy H7068 at the people H5971 NMS ; yea H637 CONJ , the fire H784 CMS of thine enemies H6862 CMP-2MS shall devour H398 them .
12 LORD H3068 EDS , thou wilt ordain H8239 peace H7965 NMS for us : for H3588 CONJ thou also H1571 CONJ hast wrought H6466 VQQ2MS all H3605 CMS our works H4639 in us .
13 O LORD H3068 EDS our God H430 , other lords H113 beside H2108 thee have had dominion H1166 over us : but by thee only H905 will we make mention H2142 of thy name H8034 .
14 They are dead H4191 , they shall not H1077 ADV live H2421 VQY3MP ; they are deceased H7496 , they shall not H1077 ADV rise H6965 : therefore H3651 L-ADV hast thou visited H6485 and destroyed H8045 them , and made all H3605 NMS their memory H2143 to perish H6 .
15 Thou hast increased H3254 the nation H1471 , O LORD H3068 EDS , thou hast increased H3254 the nation H1471 : thou art glorified H3513 : thou hadst removed it far H7368 unto all H3605 NMS the ends H7099 of the earth H776 GFS .
16 LORD H3068 EDS , in trouble H6862 have they visited H6485 thee , they poured out H6694 a prayer H3908 when thy chastening H4148 was upon them .
17 Like as H3644 PREP a woman with child H2030 , that draweth near H7126 the time of her delivery H3205 L-VQFC , is in pain H2342 , and crieth out H2199 in her pangs H2256 ; so H3651 ADV have we been H1961 in thy sight H6440 M-CMP-2MS , O LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
18 We have been with child H2029 , we have been in pain H2342 , we have as it were H3644 PREP brought forth H3205 wind H7307 NFS ; we have not H1077 ADV wrought H6213 any deliverance H3444 in the earth H776 GFS ; neither H1077 have the inhabitants H3427 of the world H8398 fallen H5307 .
19 Thy dead H4191 men shall live H2421 , together with my dead body H5038 shall they arise H6965 . Awake H6974 and sing H7442 , ye that dwell H7931 VQCMS in dust H6083 NMS : for H3588 CONJ thy dew H2919 is as the dew H2919 of herbs H219 , and the earth H776 shall cast out H5307 the dead H7496 .
20 Come H1980 VQI2MS , my people H5971 , enter H935 thou into thy chambers H2315 , and shut H5462 thy doors H1817 about H1157 thee : hide H2247 thyself as it were for a little H4592 moment H7281 NMS , until H5704 PREP the indignation H2195 be overpast H5674 .
21 For H3588 CONJ , behold H2009 IJEC , the LORD H3068 EDS cometh H3318 VQPMS out of his place H4725 M-CMS-3MS to punish H6485 the inhabitants H3427 of the earth H776 D-GFS for their iniquity H5771 : the earth H776 D-GFS also shall disclose H1540 her blood H1818 , and shall no H3808 W-NPAR more H5750 ADV cover H3680 her slain H2026 .
