Isaiah 26:2 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 In that day, everyone in the land of Judah will sing this song: Our city is strong! We are surrounded by the walls of God's salvation.
2 Open the gates to all who are righteous; allow the faithful to enter.
3 You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!
4 Trust in the LORD always, for the LORD GOD is the eternal Rock.
5 He humbles the proud and brings down the arrogant city. He brings it down to the dust.
6 The poor and oppressed trample it underfoot, and the needy walk all over it.
7 But for those who are righteous, the way is not steep and rough. You are a God who does what is right, and you smooth out the path ahead of them.
8 LORD, we show our trust in you by obeying your laws; our heart's desire is to glorify your name.
9 All night long I search for you; in the morning I earnestly seek for God. For only when you come to judge the earth will people learn what is right.
10 Your kindness to the wicked does not make them do good. Although others do right, the wicked keep doing wrong and take no notice of the LORD's majesty.
11 O LORD, they pay no attention to your upraised fist. Show them your eagerness to defend your people. Then they will be ashamed. Let your fire consume your enemies.
12 LORD, you will grant us peace; all we have accomplished is really from you.
13 O LORD our God, others have ruled us, but you alone are the one we worship.
14 Those we served before are dead and gone. Their departed spirits will never return! You attacked them and destroyed them, and they are long forgotten.
15 O LORD, you have made our nation great; yes, you have made us great. You have extended our borders, and we give you the glory!
16 LORD, in distress we searched for you. We prayed beneath the burden of your discipline.
17 Just as a pregnant woman writhes and cries out in pain as she gives birth, so were we in your presence, LORD.
18 We, too, writhe in agony, but nothing comes of our suffering. We have not given salvation to the earth, nor brought life into the world.
19 But those who die in the LORD will live; their bodies will rise again! Those who sleep in the earth will rise up and sing for joy! For your life-giving light will fall like dew on your people in the place of the dead!
20 Go home, my people, and lock your doors! Hide yourselves for a little while until the LORD's anger has passed.
21 Look! The LORD is coming from heaven to punish the people of the earth for their sins. The earth will no longer hide those who have been killed. They will be brought out for all to see.
1 In that H1931 day H3117 shall this H2088 song H7892 be sung H7891 in the land H776 of Judah; H3063 We have a strong H5797 city; H5892 salvation H3444 will God appoint H7896 for walls H2346 and bulwarks. H2426
2 Open H6605 ye the gates, H8179 that the righteous H6662 nation H1471 which keepeth H8104 the truth H529 may enter in. H935
3 Thou wilt keep H5341 him in perfect peace H7965 H7965 , whose mind H3336 is stayed H5564 on thee : because H3588 he trusteth H982 in thee.
4 Trust H982 ye in the LORD H3068 forever H5704 H5703 : for H3588 in the LORD H3050 JEHOVAH H3068 is everlasting H5769 strength: H6697
5 For H3588 he bringeth down H7817 them that dwell H3427 on high; H4791 the lofty H7682 city, H7151 he layeth it low; H8213 he layeth it low, H8213 even to H5704 the ground; H776 he bringeth H5060 it even to H5704 the dust. H6083
6 The foot H7272 shall tread it down, H7429 even the feet H7272 of the poor, H6041 and the steps H6471 of the needy. H1800
7 The way H734 of the just H6662 is uprightness: H4339 thou , most upright, H3477 dost weigh H6424 the path H4570 of the just. H6662
8 Yea H637 , in the way H734 of thy judgments, H4941 O LORD, H3068 have we waited H6960 for thee ; the desire H8378 of our soul H5315 is to thy name, H8034 and to the remembrance H2143 of thee.
9 With my soul H5315 have I desired H183 thee in the night; H3915 yea, H637 with my spirit H7307 within H7130 me will I seek thee early: H7836 for H3588 when H834 thy judgments H4941 are in the earth, H776 the inhabitants H3427 of the world H8398 will learn H3925 righteousness. H6664
10 Let favor be showed H2603 to the wicked, H7563 yet will he not H1077 learn H3925 righteousness: H6664 in the land H776 of uprightness H5229 will he deal unjustly, H5765 and will not H1077 behold H7200 the majesty H1348 of the LORD. H3068
11 LORD H3068 , when thy hand H3027 is lifted up, H5375 they will not H1077 see: H2372 but they shall see, H2372 and be ashamed H954 for their envy H7068 at the people; H5971 yea, H637 the fire H784 of thine enemies H6862 shall devour H398 them.
12 LORD H3068 , thou wilt ordain H8239 peace H7965 for us: for H3588 thou also H1571 hast wrought H6466 all H3605 our works H4639 in us.
13 O LORD H3068 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 live; H2421 they are deceased, H7496 they shall not H1077 rise: H6965 therefore H3651 hast thou visited H6485 and destroyed H8045 them , and made all H3605 their memory H2143 to perish. H6
15 Thou hast increased H3254 the nation, H1471 O LORD, H3068 thou hast increased H3254 the nation: H1471 thou art glorified: H3513 thou hadst removed it far H7368 unto all H3605 the ends H7099 of the earth. H776
16 LORD H3068 , 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 a woman with child, H2030 that draweth near H7126 the time of her delivery, H3205 is in pain, H2342 and crieth out H2199 in her pangs; H2256 so H3651 have we been H1961 in thy sight H4480 H6440 , O LORD. H3068
18 We have been with child, H2029 we have been in pain, H2342 we have as it were H3644 brought forth H3205 wind; H7307 we have not H1077 wrought H6213 any deliverance H3444 in the earth; H776 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 in dust: H6083 for H3588 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 , 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 until H5704 the indignation H2195 be overpast. H5674
21 For H3588 , behold, H2009 the LORD H3068 cometh H3318 out of his place H4480 H4725 to punish H6485 the inhabitants H3427 of the earth H776 for their iniquity: H5771 the earth H776 also shall disclose H1540 H853 her blood, H1818 and shall no H3808 more H5750 cover H3680 H5921 her slain. H2026
