Isaiah 26

1 In the day that it will be sung the song this in [the] land of Judah a city of strength [belongs] to us salvation he sets walls and a rampart.

In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah: We have a strong city; salvation will he appoint for walls and bulwarks.

2 Open [the] gates so it may enter a nation righteous [which] keeps faithfulness.

Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth faith may enter in.

3 An inclination firm you will keep peace - peace for in you [he is] trusting.

Thou wilt keep [him] in perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed [on thee]; because he trusteth in thee.

4 Trust in Yahweh until perpetuity for [is] Yahweh Yahweh a rock of everlastingness.

Trust ye in Jehovah for ever; for in Jehovah, [even] Jehovah, is an everlasting rock.

5 For he will lay low [the] inhabitants of a high place a town set on high he will bring low it he will bring low it to [the] ground he will make touch it to [the] dust.

For he hath brought down them that dwell on high, the lofty city: he layeth it low, he layeth it low even to the ground; he bringeth it even to the dust.

6 It will trample it a foot [the] feet of [the] afflicted [the] footsteps of poor [people].

The foot shall tread it down; even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy.

7 [the] way Of the righteous [is] level paths O upright [one] [the] track of [the] righteous you make level.

The way of the just is uprightness: thou that art upright dost direct the path of the just.

8 Also [the] way of judgments your O Yahweh we have waited for you [is] for name your and for memory your [the] desire of self.

Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O Jehovah, have we waited for thee; to thy name, even to thy memorial [name], is the desire of our soul.

9 Self my I have desired you in the night also spirit my in inner being my I will seek you for when judgments your [are] to the earth righteousness they learn [the] inhabitants of [the] world.

With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee earnestly: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

10 He is shown favor [the] wicked not he learns righteousness in a land of straightforwardness he acts unjustly and not he sees [the] majesty of Yahweh.

Let favor be showed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness; in the land of uprightness will he deal wrongfully, and will not behold the majesty of Jehovah.

11 O Yahweh it is raised hand your not they behold! they will behold and they may be ashamed [the] zeal of a people also [the] fire of opponents your it will consume them.

Jehovah, thy hand is lifted up, yet they see not: but they shall see [thy] zeal for the people, and be put to shame; yea, fire shall devour thine adversaries.

12 O Yahweh you will establish peace for us for also all works our you have done for us.

Jehovah, thou wilt ordain peace for us; for thou hast also wrought all our works for us.

13 O Yahweh God our they have ruled over us lords except you only in you we bring to remembrance name your.

O Jehovah our God, other lords besides thee have had dominion over us; but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.

14 Dead [ones] not they will live shades not they will rise therefore you have visited and you have destroyed them and you have destroyed all remembrance of them.

[They are] dead, they shall not live; [they are] deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all remembrance of them to perish.

15 You have added to the nation O Yahweh you have added to the nation you have gained glory you have extended all [the] boundaries of [the] land.

Thou hast increased the nation, O Jehovah, thou hast increased the nation; thou art glorified; thou hast enlarged all the borders of the land.

16 O Yahweh in distress people sought you they poured out! a whisper chastening your [was] to them.

Jehovah, in trouble have they visited thee; they poured out a prayer [when] thy chastening was upon them.

17 Like a pregnant [woman] [who] she brings near to give birth she is in labor she cries out in labor-pains her so we were because of you O Yahweh.

Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain and crieth out in her pangs; so we have been before thee, O Jehovah.

18 We were pregnant we were in labor like we gave birth to wind deliverance not we accomplish [the] earth and not they fall [the] inhabitants of [the] world.

We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.

19 They will live dead [ones] your corpse my they will rise! awake and shout for joy O [those who] dwell of dust for [will be the] dew of lights dew your and [the] earth [the] shades it will make fall.

Thy dead shall live; my dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in the dust; for thy dew is [as] the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast forth the dead.

20 Come O people my go in rooms your and shut (door your *QK) behind you hide like a little of a moment until (it has passed by *Qk) indignation.

Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

21 For there! Yahweh [is] about to go forth from place his to visit [the] iniquity of [the] inhabitant[s] of the earth on him and it will reveal the earth blood its and not it will cover still over slain [ones] its.

For, behold, Jehovah cometh forth out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
