Isaiah 26:1-6
Legacy Standard Bible
Yahweh Will Establish Peace
26 (A)In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah:
“We have a (B)strong city;
He sets up walls and ramparts for (C)salvation.
2 Open the (D)gates, that the (E)righteous nation may enter,
The one that keeps faithfulness.
3 The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect (F)peace
Because he trusts in You.
4 (G)Trust in Yahweh forever,
For in Yah—Yahweh Himself—we have an everlasting (H)Rock.
5 For He has laid low those who settle on high, the [a](I)exalted city;
(J)He brings it low, He brings it low to the ground, He casts it to the dust.
6 (K)The foot will trample it,
The feet of the (L)afflicted, the steps of the poor.”

Judah’s Song of Victory
26 In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah:
“We have a strong city;
he sets up salvation
as walls and bulwarks.
2 Open the gates,
that the righteous nation which keeps faith
may enter in.
3 Thou dost keep him in perfect peace,
whose mind is stayed on thee,
because he trusts in thee.
4 Trust in the Lord for ever,
for the Lord God
is an everlasting rock.
5 For he has brought low
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 the poor,
the steps of the needy.”
