[1] In that day, this song will be sung in the land of Judah:
“We have a strong city.
God appoints salvation for walls and bulwarks.
[2] Open the gates, that the righteous nation may enter:
the one which keeps faith.
[3] You will keep whoever’s mind is steadfast in perfect peace,
because he trusts in you.
[4] Trust in Yahweh forever;
for in Yah, Yahweh, is an everlasting Rock.
[5] For he has brought 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 who are upright make the path of the righteous level. [8] Yes, in the way of your judgments, Yahweh, we have waited for you.
Your name and your renown are the desire of our soul.
[9] With my soul I have desired you in the night.
Yes, with my spirit within me I will seek you earnestly;
for when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
[10] Let favor be shown to the wicked,
yet he will not learn righteousness.
In the land of uprightness he will deal wrongfully,
and will not see Yahweh’s majesty. [11] Yahweh, your hand is lifted up, yet they don’t see;
but they will see your zeal for the people and be disappointed.
Yes, fire will consume your adversaries.
[12] Yahweh, you will ordain peace for us,
for you have also done all our work for us.
[13] Yahweh our God, other lords besides you have had dominion over us,
but we will only acknowledge your name.
[14] The dead shall not live.
The departed spirits shall not rise.
Therefore you have visited and destroyed them,
and caused all memory of them to perish.
[15] You have increased the nation, O Yahweh.
You have increased the nation!
You are glorified!
You have enlarged all the borders of the land. [16] Yahweh, in trouble they have visited you.
They poured out a prayer when your chastening was on them.
[17] Just as a woman with child, who draws near the time of her delivery,
is in pain and cries out in her pangs,
so we have been before you, Yahweh.
[18] We have been with child.
We have been in pain.
We gave birth, it seems, only to wind.
We have not worked any deliverance in the earth;
neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
[19] Your dead shall live.
Their dead bodies shall arise.
Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust;
for your dew is like the dew of herbs,
and the earth will cast out the departed spirits. [20] Come, my people, enter into your rooms,
and shut your doors behind you.
Hide yourself for a little moment,
until the indignation is past.
[21] For, behold, Yahweh comes out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity.
The earth also will disclose her blood, and will no longer cover her slain.

King James Version
[1] In that dayH3117 shall this songH7892 be sungH7891(HophImpf) in the landH776 of Judah;H3063 We have a strongH5797 city;H5892 salvationH3444 will [God] appointH7896(QalImpf) [for] wallsH2346 and bulwarks.H2426 [2] OpenH6605(QalImpv) ye the gates,H8179 that the righteousH6662 nationH1471 which keepethH8104(QalActPtc) the truthH529 may enter in.H935(QalImpf) [3] Thou wilt keepH5341(QalImpf) [him] in perfectH7965 peace,H7965 [whose] mindH3336 [is] stayedH5564(QalPasPtc) [on thee]: because he trustethH982(QalPasPtc) in thee. [4] TrustH982(QalImpv) ye in the LordH3068 for ever:H5703 for in the LordH3050 JEHOVAHH3068 [is] everlastingH5769 strength:H6697 [5] For he bringeth downH7817(HiphPerf) them that dwellH3427(QalActPtc) on high;H4791 the loftyH7682(NiphPtc) city,H7151 he layeth it low;H8213(HiphImpf) he layeth it low,H8213(HiphImpf) [even] to the ground;H776 he bringethH5060(HiphImpf) it [even] to the dust.H6083 [6] The footH7272 shall tread it down,H7429(QalImpf) [even] the feetH7272 of the poor,H6041 [and] the stepsH6471 of the needy.H1800 [7] The wayH734 of the justH6662 [is] uprightness:H4339 thou, most upright,H3477 dost weighH6424(PielImpf) the pathH4570 of the just.H6662 [8] Yea, in the wayH734 of thy judgments,H4941 O Lord,H3068 have we waitedH6960(PielPerf) for thee; the desireH8378 of [our] soulH5315 [is] to thy name,H8034 and to the remembranceH2143 of thee. [9] With my soulH5315 have I desiredH183(PielPerf) thee in the night;H3915 yea, with my spiritH7307 withinH7130 me will I seek thee early:H7836(PielImpf) for when thy judgmentsH4941 [are] in the earth,H776 the inhabitantsH3427(QalActPtc) of the worldH8398 will learnH3925(QalPerf) righteousness.H6664 [10] Let favour be shewedH2603(HophPerf) to the wicked,H7563 [yet] will he notH1077 learnH3925(QalPerf) righteousness:H6664 in the landH776 of uprightnessH5229 will he deal unjustly,H5765(PielImpf) and will notH1077 beholdH7200(QalImpf) the majestyH1348 of the Lord.H3068 [11] Lord,H3068 [when] thy handH3027 is lifted up,H7311(QalPerf) they will not see:H2372(QalImpf) [but] they shall see,H2372(QalImpf) and be ashamedH954(QalImpf) for [their] envyH7068 at the people;H5971 yea, the fireH784 of thine enemiesH6862 shall devourH398(QalImpf) them. [12] Lord,H3068 thou wilt ordainH8239(QalImpf) peaceH7965 for us: for thou also hast wroughtH6466(QalPerf) all our worksH4639 in us. [13] O LordH3068 our God,H430 [other] lordsH113 besideH2108 thee have had dominionH1166(QalPerf) over us: [but] by thee only will we make mentionH2142(HiphImpf) of thy name.H8034 [14] [They are] dead,H4191(QalPtc) they shall not live;H2421(QalImpf) [they are] deceased,H7496 they shall not rise:H6965(QalImpf) therefore hast thou visitedH6485(QalPerf) and destroyedH8045(HiphImpf) them, and made all their memoryH2143 to perish.H6(PielImpf) [15] Thou hast increasedH3254(QalPerf) the nation,H1471 O Lord,H3068 thou hast increasedH3254(QalPerf) the nation:H1471 thou art glorified:H3513(NiphPerf) thou hadst removed [it] farH7368(PielPerf) [unto] all the endsH7099 of the earth.H776 [16] Lord,H3068 in troubleH6862 have they visitedH6485(QalPerf) thee, they poured outH6694(QalPerf) a prayerH3908 [when] thy chasteningH4148 [was] upon them. [17] LikeH3644 as a woman with child,H2030 [that] draweth nearH7126(HiphImpf) the time of her delivery,H3205(QalInf) is in pain,H2342(QalImpf) [and] crieth outH2199(QalImpf) in her pangs;H2256 so have we been in thy sight,H6440 O Lord.H3068 [18] We have been with child,H2029(QalPerf) we have been in pain,H2342(QalPerf) we have as it wereH3644 brought forthH3205(QalPerf) wind;H7307 we have not wroughtH6213(QalImpf) any deliveranceH3444 in the earth;H776 neitherH1077 have the inhabitantsH3427(QalActPtc) of the worldH8398 fallen.H5307(QalImpf) [19] Thy deadH4191(QalPtc) [men] shall live,H2421(QalImpf) [together with] my dead bodyH5038 shall they arise.H6965(QalImpf) AwakeH6974(HiphImpv) and sing,H7442(PielImpv) ye that dwellH7931(QalActPtc) in dust:H6083 for thy dewH2919 [is as] the dewH2919 of herbs,H219 and the earthH776 shall cast outH5307(HiphImpf) the dead.H7496 [20] Come,H3212(QalImpv) my people,H5971 enterH935(QalImpv) thou into thy chambers,H2315 and shutH5462(QalImpv) thy doorsH1817 about thee: hideH2247(QalImpv) thyself as it were for a littleH4592 moment,H7281 until the indignationH2195 be overpast.H5674(QalImpf) [21] For, behold, the LordH3068 cometh outH3318(QalActPtc) of his placeH4725 to punishH6485(QalInf) the inhabitantsH3427(QalActPtc) of the earthH776 for their iniquity:H5771 the earthH776 also shall discloseH1540(PielPerf) her blood,H1818 and shall no more coverH3680(PielImpf) her slain.H2026(QalPasPtc)
