In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah : a strong city ; salvation is established as its walls and ramparts.
Open the gates so a righteous nation may enter — one that remains faithful.
You will keep in perfect peace the steadfast of mind , because he trusts
Trust in the LORD forever ... , because GOD the LORD (is) the Rock eternal.
For He has humbled those who dwell on high ; He lays the lofty city {low}. He brings it down to the ground ; He casts it into the dust.
Feet trample it down — the feet of the oppressed , the steps of the poor.
The path of the righteous is level ; You clear a straight path for the upright.
Yes , we wait for You , O LORD ; (we walk) in the path of Your judgments. Your name and renown are the desire of (our) souls.
My soul longs (for You) in the night ; indeed , my spirit seeks You at dawn. For when Your judgments (come) upon the earth , the people of the world learn righteousness.
Though grace is shown to the wicked man , he does not learn righteousness. In the land of righteousness he Acts - unjustly and fails to see the majesty of the LORD.
O LORD , Your hand is upraised , but they do not see it. They will see Your zeal for Your people ... and be put to shame. The fire (set) for Your enemies will consume them !
O LORD , You will establish peace For ... all that we have accomplished , You have done
O LORD our God , (other) lords besides You have had dominion , but Your name alone do we confess
The dead will not live ; the departed spirits will not rise. Therefore You have punished and destroyed them ; You have wiped out all memory
You have enlarged the nation , O LORD ; You have enlarged the nation. You have gained glory for Yourself ; You have extended all the borders of the land.
O LORD , they sought You in their distress ; when You disciplined them , they poured out a quiet prayer.
As a woman with child about to give birth writhes and cries out in pain , so were we in Your presence , O LORD.
We were with child ; we writhed in pain ; but we gave birth to wind. We have given no salvation to the earth , nor brought any life into the world.
Your dead will live ; their bodies will rise. Awake and sing , you who dwell in the dust ! For your dew is like the dew of the morning , and the earth will bring forth her dead.
Go , my people , enter your rooms and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourselves a little while until the wrath has passed.
For behold , the LORD is coming out of His dwelling to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity .... The earth - will reveal her bloodshed and will no longer ... conceal her slain.
