26:1 In that day 3117 shall this song 7892 be sung 7891 8714 in the land 776 of Judah 3063; We have a strong 5797 city 5892; salvation 3444 will [God] appoint 7896 8799 [for] walls 2346 and bulwarks 2426.

26:2 Open 6605 8798 ye the gates 8179, that the righteous 6662 nation 1471 which keepeth 8104 8802 the truth 529 may enter in 935 8799.(truth: Heb. truths)

26:3 Thou wilt keep 5341 8799 [him] in perfect 7965 peace 7965, [whose] mind 3336 [is] stayed 5564 8803 [on thee]: because he trusteth 982 8803 in thee.(perfect…: Heb. peace, peace)(mind: or, thought, or, imagination)

26:4 Trust 982 8798 ye in the LORD 3068 for ever 5703: for in the LORD 3050 JEHOVAH 3068 [is] everlasting 5769 strength 6697:(everlasting…: Heb. the rock of ages)

26:5 For he bringeth down 7817 8689 them that dwell 3427 8802 on high 4791; the lofty 7682 8737 city 7151, he layeth it low 8213 8686; he layeth it low 8213 8686, [even] to the ground 776; he bringeth 5060 8686 it [even] to the dust 6083.

26:6 The foot 7272 shall tread it down 7429 8799, [even] the feet 7272 of the poor 6041, [and] the steps 6471 of the needy 1800.

26:7 The way 734 of the just 6662 [is] uprightness 4339: thou, most upright 3477, dost weigh 6424 8762 the path 4570 of the just 6662.

26:8 Yea, in the way 734 of thy judgments 4941, O LORD 3068, have we waited 6960 8765 for thee; the desire 8378 of [our] soul 5315 [is] to thy name 8034, and to the remembrance 2143 of thee.

26:9 With my soul 5315 have I desired 183 8765 thee in the night 3915; yea, with my spirit 7307 within 7130 me will I seek thee early 7836 8762: for when thy judgments 4941 [are] in the earth 776, the inhabitants 3427 8802 of the world 8398 will learn 3925 8804 righteousness 6664.

26:10 Let favour be shewed 2603 8717 to the wicked 7563, [yet] will he not 1077 learn 3925 8804 righteousness 6664: in the land 776 of uprightness 5229 will he deal unjustly 5765 8762, and will not 1077 behold 7200 8799 the majesty 1348 of the LORD 3068.

26:11 LORD 3068, [when] thy hand 3027 is lifted up 7311 8804, they will not see 2372 8799: [but] they shall see 2372 8799, and be ashamed 954 8799 for [their] envy 7068 at the people 5971; yea, the fire 784 of thine enemies 6862 shall devour 398 8799 them.(at…: or, toward thy people)

26:12 LORD 3068, thou wilt ordain 8239 8799 peace 7965 for us: for thou also hast wrought 6466 8804 all our works 4639 in us.(in us: or, for us)

26:13 O LORD 3068 our God 430, [other] lords 113 beside 2108 thee have had dominion 1166 8804 over us: [but] by thee only will we make mention 2142 8686 of thy name 8034.

26:14 [They are] dead 4191 8801, they shall not live 2421 8799; [they are] deceased 7496, they shall not rise 6965 8799: therefore hast thou visited 6485 8804 and destroyed 8045 8686 them, and made all their memory 2143 to perish 6 8762.

26:15 Thou hast increased 3254 8804 the nation 1471, O LORD 3068, thou hast increased 3254 8804 the nation 1471: thou art glorified 3513 8738: thou hadst removed [it] far 7368 8765 [unto] all the ends 7099 of the earth 776.

26:16 LORD 3068, in trouble 6862 have they visited 6485 8804 thee, they poured out 6694 8804 a prayer 3908 [when] thy chastening 4148 [was] upon them.(prayer: Heb. secret speech)

26:17 Like 3644 as a woman with child 2030, [that] draweth near 7126 8686 the time of her delivery 3205 8800, is in pain 2342 8799, [and] crieth out 2199 8799 in her pangs 2256; so have we been in thy sight 6440, O LORD 3068.

26:18 We have been with child 2029 8804, we have been in pain 2342 8804, we have as it were 3644 brought forth 3205 8804 wind 7307; we have not wrought 6213 8799 any deliverance 3444 in the earth 776; neither 1077 have the inhabitants 3427 8802 of the world 8398 fallen 5307 8799.

26:19 Thy dead 4191 8801 [men] shall live 2421 8799, [together with] my dead body 5038 shall they arise 6965 8799. Awake 6974 8685 and sing 7442 8761, ye that dwell 7931 8802 in dust 6083: for thy dew 2919 [is as] the dew 2919 of herbs 219, and the earth 776 shall cast out 5307 8686 the dead 7496.

26:20 Come 3212 8798, my people 5971, enter 935 8798 thou into thy chambers 2315, and shut 5462 8798 thy doors 1817 about thee: hide 2247 8798 thyself as it were for a little 4592 moment 7281, until the indignation 2195 be overpast 5674 8799.

26:21 For, behold, the LORD 3068 cometh out 3318 8802 of his place 4725 to punish 6485 8800 the inhabitants 3427 8802 of the earth 776 for their iniquity 5771: the earth 776 also shall disclose 1540 8765 her blood 1818, and shall no more cover 3680 8762 her slain 2026 8803.(blood: Heb. bloods)
