¹ H3117 In that day H7892 shall this song H7891 be sung [H8714]   H776 in the land H3063 of Judah H5797 ; We have a strong H5892 city H3444 ; salvation H7896 will God appoint [H8799]   H2346 for walls H2426 and bulwarks.

² H6605 Open [H8798]   H8179 ye the gates H6662 , that the righteous H1471 nation H8104 which keepeth [H8802]   H529 the truth H935 may enter in [H8799]  .

³ H5341 Thou wilt keep [H8799]   H7965 him in perfect H7965 peace H3336 , whose mind H5564 is stayed [H8803]   H982 on thee : because he trusteth [H8803]   in thee.

⁴ H982 Trust [H8798]   H3068 ye in the LORD H5703 for ever H3050 : for in the LORD H3068 JEHOVAH H5769 is everlasting H6697 strength:

⁵ H7817 For he bringeth down [H8689]   H3427 them that dwell [H8802]   H4791 on high H7682 ; the lofty [H8737]   H7151 city H8213 , he layeth it low [H8686]   H8213 ; he layeth it low [H8686]   H776 , even to the ground H5060 ; he bringeth [H8686]   H6083 it even to the dust.

⁶ H7272 The foot H7429 shall tread it down [H8799]   H7272 , even the feet H6041 of the poor H6471 , and the steps H1800 of the needy.

⁷ H734 The way H6662 of the just H4339 is uprightness H3477 : thou, most upright H6424 , dost weigh [H8762]   H4570 the path H6662 of the just.

⁸ H734 Yea, in the way H4941 of thy judgments H3068 , O LORD H6960 , have we waited [H8765]   H8378 for thee; the desire H5315 of our soul H8034 is to thy name H2143 , and to the remembrance of thee.

⁹ H5315 With my soul H183 have I desired [H8765]   H3915 thee in the night H7307 ; yea, with my spirit H7130 within H7836 me will I seek thee early [H8762]   H4941 : for when thy judgments H776 are in the earth H3427 , the inhabitants [H8802]   H8398 of the world H3925 will learn [H8804]   H6664 righteousness.

¹⁰ H2603 Let favour be shewed [H8717]   H7563 to the wicked H1077 , yet will he not H3925 learn [H8804]   H6664 righteousness H776 : in the land H5229 of uprightness H5765 will he deal unjustly [H8762]   H1077 , and will not H7200 behold [H8799]   H1348 the majesty H3068 of the LORD.

¹¹ H3068 LORD H3027 , when thy hand H7311 is lifted up [H8804]   H2372 , they will not see [H8799]   H2372 : but they shall see [H8799]   H954 , and be ashamed [H8799]   H7068 for their envy H5971 at the people H784 ; yea, the fire H6862 of thine enemies H398 shall devour [H8799]   them.

¹² H3068 LORD H8239 , thou wilt ordain [H8799]   H7965 peace H6466 for us: for thou also hast wrought [H8804]   H4639 all our works in us.

¹³ H3068 O LORD H430 our God H113 , other lords H2108 beside H1166 thee have had dominion [H8804]   H2142 over us: but by thee only will we make mention [H8686]   H8034 of thy name.

¹⁴ H4191 They are dead [H8801]   H2421 , they shall not live [H8799]   H7496 ; they are deceased H6965 , they shall not rise [H8799]   H6485 : therefore hast thou visited [H8804]   H8045 and destroyed [H8686]   H2143 them, and made all their memory H6 to perish [H8762]  .

¹⁵ H3254 Thou hast increased [H8804]   H1471 the nation H3068 , O LORD H3254 , thou hast increased [H8804]   H1471 the nation H3513 : thou art glorified [H8738]   H7368 : thou hadst removed it far [H8765]   H7099 unto all the ends H776 of the earth.

¹⁶ H3068 LORD H6862 , in trouble H6485 have they visited [H8804]   H6694 thee, they poured out [H8804]   H3908 a prayer H4148 when thy chastening was upon them.

¹⁷ H3644 Like H2030 as a woman with child H7126 , that draweth near [H8686]   H3205 the time of her delivery [H8800]   H2342 , is in pain [H8799]   H2199 , and crieth out [H8799]   H2256 in her pangs H6440 ; so have we been in thy sight H3068 , O LORD.

¹⁸ H2029 We have been with child [H8804]   H2342 , we have been in pain [H8804]   H3644 , we have as it were H3205 brought forth [H8804]   H7307 wind H6213 ; we have not wrought [H8799]   H3444 any deliverance H776 in the earth H1077 ; neither H3427 have the inhabitants [H8802]   H8398 of the world H5307 fallen [H8799]  .

¹⁹ H4191 Thy dead [H8801]   H2421 men shall live [H8799]   H5038 , together with my dead body H6965 shall they arise [H8799]   H6974 . Awake [H8685]   H7442 and sing [H8761]   H7931 , ye that dwell [H8802]   H6083 in dust H2919 : for thy dew H2919 is as the dew H219 of herbs H776 , and the earth H5307 shall cast out [H8686]   H7496 the dead.

²⁰ H3212 Come [H8798]   H5971 , my people H935 , enter [H8798]   H2315 thou into thy chambers H5462 , and shut [H8798]   H1817 thy doors H2247 about thee: hide [H8798]   H4592 thyself as it were for a little H7281 moment H2195 , until the indignation H5674 be overpast [H8799]  .

²¹ H3068 For, behold, the LORD H3318 cometh out [H8802]   H4725 of his place H6485 to punish [H8800]   H3427 the inhabitants [H8802]   H776 of the earth H5771 for their iniquity H776 : the earth H1540 also shall disclose [H8765]   H1818 her blood H3680 , and shall no more cover [H8762]   H2026 her slain [H8803]  .
