Isaiah
Chapter 26
1
In that day
shall
this song be sung in the land of Judah.
We
have a strong city;
deliverance/salvation
will 'Elohiym/Godhead appoint
for
walls and bulwarks.
2
Open you the gates,
that
the righteous nation
who
keeps the truth may enter in.
3
You will keep him in perfect peace,
whose
mind is stayed on You . . .
because
he trusted in You.
4
Trust you in Jehovah/God forever . . .
for
in Yahh/God Jehovah/God
is
everlasting strength.
5
For He brings down
those
who dwell on high . . .
the
lofty city, He lays it low.
He lays it low, even to the ground.
He brings it even to the dust.
6
The foot shall tread it down,
even
the feet of the poor,
and
the steps of the needy.
7 The Way of the just is uprightness.
You, Most Upright, does weigh the path of the just.
8
Yes, in the Way of your judgments, O Jehovah/God,
have
we waited for You.
The
desire of our soul is to Your Name,
and
to the remembrance of You.
9 With my soul have I desired You in the night.
Yes,
with my spirit within me
will
I seek You early . . .
for
when your judgments are in the earth,
the
inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.
10 Let favor be showed to the wicked.
Yet will he not learn righteousness.
In
the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly,
and
will not behold the majesty of Jehovah/God.
11
Jehovah/God,
when
Your hand is lifted up,
they
will not see.
But
they shall see,
and
be ashamed
for
their envy at the people.
You, the fire of Your enemies, shall devour them.
12
Jehovah/God,
You
will ordain peace for us.
For You also has wrought all our works in us.
13
O Jehovah/God our 'Elohiym/Godhead,
other
'elohiym/gods beside You
have
had dominion over us.
But by You only will we make mention of Your Name.
14
They are dead,
they
shall not live.
They
are deceased,
they
shall not rise.
Therefore
have You visited and destroyed them,
and
made all their memory to perish.
15
You have increased the nation, O Jehovah/God,
You
have increased the nation.
You are glorified.
You have removed it far unto all the ends of the earth.
16
Jehovah/God,
in
trouble have they visited You,
they
poured out a prayer
when
Your chastening was upon them.
17
Like as a woman with child,
who
draws near the time of her delivery,
is
in pain,
and
cries out in her pangs . . .
so
have we been in your sight, O Jehovah/God.
18
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
Your dead men shall live,
together
with my dead body shall they arise.
Awake
and sing,
You
who dwell in dust . . .
for
your dew is as the dew of herbs,
and
the earth shall cast out the dead.
20
Come, My people,
enter
you into your chambers,
and
shut your doors about you.
Hide
yourself as it were for a little moment,
until
the indignation be over-past.
21
For, behold, Jehovah/God comes out of His place
to
punish the inhabitants of the earth
for
their 'punishment for sin'/iniquity {`avon}.
The
earth also shall disclose her blood,
and
shall no more cover her slain.
