Isaiah 26

Song of Trust in God’s Protection

26In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: "We have a strong city; He sets up walls and ramparts for security.H3117H7892H7891H776H3063H5797H5892H3444H7896H2346H24262"Open the gates, that the righteous nation may enter, The one that remains faithful.H6605H8179H6662H1471H8104H529H9353"The steadfast of mind Thou wilt keep in perfect peace, Because he trusts in Thee.H5341H7965H7965H3336H5564H9824"Trust in the LORD forever, For in GOD the LORD, [we have] an everlasting Rock.H982H3068H5703H3050H3068H5769H66975"For He has brought low those who dwell on high, the unassailable city; He lays it low, He lays it low to the ground, He casts it to the dust.H7817H3427H4791H7682H7151H8213H8213H776H5060H60836"The foot will trample it, The feet of the afflicted, the steps of the helpless."H7272H7429H7272H6041H6471H18007The way of the righteous is smooth; O Upright One, make the path of the righteous level.H734H6662H4339H3477H6424H4570H66628Indeed, [while following] the way of Thy judgments, O LORD, We have waited for Thee eagerly; Thy name, even Thy memory, is the desire of [our] souls.H734H4941H3068H6960H8378H5315H8034H21439At night my soul longs for Thee, Indeed, my spirit within me seeks Thee diligently; For when the earth experiences Thy judgments The inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.H5315H183H3915H7307H7130H7836H4941H776H3427H8398H3925H666410[Though] the wicked is shown favor, He does not learn righteousness; He deals unjustly in the land of uprightness, And does not perceive the majesty of the LORD.H2603H7563H1077H3925H6664H776H5229H5765H1077H7200H1348H306811O LORD, Thy hand is lifted up [yet] they do not see it. They see [Thy] zeal for the people and are put to shame; Indeed, fire will devour Thine enemies.H3068H3027H7311H2372H2372H954H7068H5971H784H6862H39812LORD, Thou wilt establish peace for us, Since Thou hast also performed for us all our works.H3068H8239H7965H6466H463913O LORD our God, other masters besides Thee have ruled us; [But] through Thee alone we confess Thy name.H3068H430H113H2108H1166H2142H803414The dead will not live, the departed spirits will not rise; Therefore Thou hast punished and destroyed them, And Thou hast wiped out all remembrance of them.H4191H2421H7496H6965H6485H8045H2143H615Thou hast increased the nation, O LORD, Thou hast increased the nation, Thou art glorified; Thou hast extended all the borders of the land.H3254H1471H3068H3254H1471H3513H7368H7099H77616O LORD, they sought Thee in distress; They could only whisper a prayer, Thy chastening was upon them.H3068H6862H6485H6694H3908H414817As the pregnant woman approaches [the time] to give birth, She writhes [and] cries out in her labor pains, Thus were we before Thee, O LORD.H3644H2030H7126H3205H2342H2199H2256H6440H306818We were pregnant, we writhed [in labor], We gave birth, as it were, [only] to wind. We could not accomplish deliverance for the earth Nor were inhabitants of the world born.H2029H2342H3644H3205H7307H6213H3444H776H1077H3427H8398H530719Your dead will live; Their corpses will rise. You who lie in the dust, awake and shout for joy, For your dew is as the dew of the dawn, And the earth will give birth to the departed spirits.H4191H2421H5038H6965H6974H7442H7931H6083H2919H2919H219H776H5307H749620Come, my people, enter into your rooms, And close your doors behind you; Hide for a little while, Until indignation runs [its] course.H3212H5971H935H2315H5462H1817H2247H4592H7281H2195H567421For behold, the LORD is about to come out from His place To punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; And the earth will reveal her bloodshed, And will no longer cover her slain.H3068H3318H4725H6485H3427H776H5771H776H1540H1818H3680H2026

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
