“We have a strong city;
    he sets up ^(B)salvation
    as walls and bulwarks.
^2 (C)Open the gates,
    that the righteous nation that keeps faith may enter in.
^3 (D)You keep him in perfect peace
    whose mind is stayed on you,
    because he trusts in you.
⁴ Trust in the Lord forever,
    for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.
^5 (E)For he has humbled
    the inhabitants of the height,
    the lofty city.
He lays it low, lays it low to the ground,
    casts it to the dust.
⁶ The foot tramples it,
    the feet of ^(F)the poor,
    the steps of ^(G)the needy.”
