Isaiah 26:1-20

26:1

In that day
<03117>

shall this song
<07892>

be sung
<07891> (8714)

in the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_;

We have a strong
<05797>

city
<05892>_;

salvation
<03444>

will [God] appoint
<07896> (8799)

[for] walls
<02346>

and bulwarks
<02426>_.

26:2

Open
<06605> (8798)

ye the gates
<08179>_,

that the righteous
<06662>

nation
<01471>

which keepeth
<08104> (8802)

the truth
<0529>

may enter in
<0935> (8799)_.

{truth: Heb. truths}

26:3

Thou wilt keep
<05341> (8799)

[him] in perfect
<07965>

peace
<07965>_,

[whose] mind
<03336>

[is] stayed
<05564> (8803)

[on thee]: because he trusteth
<0982> (8803)

in thee. {perfect...: Heb. peace, peace} {mind: or, thought, or, imagination}

26:4

Trust
<0982> (8798)

ye in the LORD
<03068>

for ever
<05703>_:

for in the LORD
<03050>

JEHOVAH
<03068>

[is] everlasting
<05769>

strength
<06697>_:

{everlasting...: Heb. the rock of ages}

26:5

For he bringeth down
<07817> (8689)

them that dwell
<03427> (8802)

on high
<04791>_;

the lofty
<07682> (8737)

city
<07151>_,

he layeth it low
<08213> (8686)_;

he layeth it low
<08213> (8686)_,

[even] to the ground
<0776>_;

he bringeth
<05060> (8686)

it [even] to the dust
<06083>_.

26:6

The foot
<07272>

shall tread it down
<07429> (8799)_,

[even] the feet
<07272>

of the poor
<06041>_,

[and] the steps
<06471>

of the needy
<01800>_.

26:7

The way
<0734>

of the just
<06662>

[is] uprightness
<04339>_:

thou, most upright
<03477>_,

dost weigh
<06424> (8762)

the path
<04570>

of the just
<06662>_.

26:8

Yea, in the way
<0734>

of thy judgments
<04941>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

have we waited
<06960> (8765)

for thee; the desire
<08378>

of [our] soul
<05315>

[is] to thy name
<08034>_,

and to the remembrance
<02143>

of thee.

26:9

With my soul
<05315>

have I desired
<0183> (8765)

thee in the night
<03915>_;

yea, with my spirit
<07307>

within
<07130>

me will I seek thee early
<07836> (8762)_:

for when thy judgments
<04941>

[are] in the earth
<0776>_,

the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the world
<08398>

will learn
<03925> (8804)

righteousness
<06664>_.

26:10

Let favour be shewed
<02603> (8717)

to the wicked
<07563>_,

[yet] will he not
<01077>

learn
<03925> (8804)

righteousness
<06664>_:

in the land
<0776>

of uprightness
<05229>

will he deal unjustly
<05765> (8762)_,

and will not
<01077>

behold
<07200> (8799)

the majesty
<01348>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

26:11

LORD
<03068>_,

[when] thy hand
<03027>

is lifted up
<07311> (8804)_,

they will not see
<02372> (8799)_:

[but] they shall see
<02372> (8799)_,

and be ashamed
<0954> (8799)

for [their] envy
<07068>

at the people
<05971>_;

yea, the fire
<0784>

of thine enemies
<06862>

shall devour
<0398> (8799)

them. {at...: or, toward thy people}

26:12

LORD
<03068>_,

thou wilt ordain
<08239> (8799)

peace
<07965>

for us: for thou also hast wrought
<06466> (8804)

all our works
<04639>

in us. {in us: or, for us}

26:13

O LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

[other] lords
<0113>

beside
<02108>

thee have had dominion
<01166> (8804)

over us: [but] by thee only will we make mention
<02142> (8686)

of thy name
<08034>_.

26:14

[They are] dead
<04191> (8801)_,

they shall not live
<02421> (8799)_;

[they are] deceased
<07496>_,

they shall not rise
<06965> (8799)_:

therefore hast thou visited
<06485> (8804)

and destroyed
<08045> (8686)

them, and made all their memory
<02143>

to perish
<06> (8762)_.

26:15

Thou hast increased
<03254> (8804)

the nation
<01471>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

thou hast increased
<03254> (8804)

the nation
<01471>_:

thou art glorified
<03513> (8738)_:

thou hadst removed [it] far
<07368> (8765)

[unto] all the ends
<07099>

of the earth
<0776>_.

26:16

LORD
<03068>_,

in trouble
<06862>

have they visited
<06485> (8804)

thee, they poured out
<06694> (8804)

a prayer
<03908>

[when] thy chastening
<04148>

[was] upon them. {prayer: Heb. secret speech}

26:17

Like
<03644>

as a woman with child
<02030>_,

[that] draweth near
<07126> (8686)

the time of her delivery
<03205> (8800)_,

is in pain
<02342> (8799)_,

[and] crieth out
<02199> (8799)

in her pangs
<02256>_;

so have we been in thy sight
<06440>_,

O LORD
<03068>_.

26:18

We have been with child
<02029> (8804)_,

we have been in pain
<02342> (8804)_,

we have as it were
<03644>

brought forth
<03205> (8804)

wind
<07307>_;

we have not wrought
<06213> (8799)

any deliverance
<03444>

in the earth
<0776>_;

neither
<01077>

have the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the world
<08398>

fallen
<05307> (8799)_.

26:19

Thy dead
<04191> (8801)

[men] shall live
<02421> (8799)_,

[together with] my dead body
<05038>

shall they arise
<06965> (8799)_.

Awake
<06974> (8685)

and sing
<07442> (8761)_,

ye that dwell
<07931> (8802)

in dust
<06083>_:

for thy dew
<02919>

[is as] the dew
<02919>

of herbs
<0219>_,

and the earth
<0776>

shall cast out
<05307> (8686)

the dead
<07496>_.

26:20

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

my people
<05971>_,

enter
<0935> (8798)

thou into thy chambers
<02315>_,

and shut
<05462> (8798)

thy doors
<01817>

about thee: hide
<02247> (8798)

thyself as it were for a little
<04592>

moment
<07281>_,

until the indignation
<02195>

be overpast
<05674> (8799)_.
