Isaiah 26

The Message Bible MSG

1 At that time, this song will be sung in the country of Judah: We have a strong city, Salvation City, built and fortified with salvation.

2 Throw wide the gates so good and true people can enter.

3 People with their minds set on you, you keep completely whole, Steady on their feet, because they keep at it and don't quit.

4 Depend on God and keep at it because in the Lord God you have a sure thing.

5 Those who lived high and mighty he knocked off their high horse. He used the city built on the hill as fill for the marshes.

6 All the exploited and outcast peoples build their lives on the reclaimed land.

7 The path of right-living people is level. The Leveler evens the road for the right-living.

8 We're in no hurry, God. We're content to linger in the path sign-posted with your decisions. Who you are and what you've done are all we'll ever want.

9 Through the night my soul longs for you. Deep from within me my spirit reaches out to you. When your decisions are on public display, everyone learns how to live right.

10 If the wicked are shown grace, they don't seem to get it. In the land of right living, they persist in wrong living, blind to the splendor of God.

11 You hold your hand up high, God, but they don't see it. Open their eyes to what you do, to see your zealous love for your people. Shame them. Light a fire under them. Get the attention of these enemies of yours.

12 God, order a peaceful and whole life for us because everything we've done, you've done for us.

13 O God, our God, we've had other masters rule us, but you're the only Master we've ever known.

14 The dead don't talk, ghosts don't walk, Because you've said, "Enough - that's all for you," and wiped them off the books.

15 But the living you make larger than life. The more life you give, the more glory you display, and stretch the borders to accommodate more living!

16 O God, they begged you for help when they were in trouble, when your discipline was so heavy they could barely whisper a prayer.

17 Like a woman having a baby, writhing in distress, screaming her pain as the baby is being born, That's how we were because of you, O God.

18 We were pregnant full-term. We writhed in labor but bore no baby. We gave birth to wind. Nothing came of our labor. We produced nothing living. We couldn't save the world.

19 But friends, your dead will live, your corpses will get to their feet. All you dead and buried, wake up! Sing! Your dew is morning dew catching the first rays of sun, The earth bursting with life, giving birth to the dead.

20 Come, my people, go home and shut yourselves in. Go into seclusion for a while until the punishing wrath is past,

21 Because God is sure to come from his place to punish the wrong of the people on earth. Earth itself will point out the bloodstains; it will show where the murdered have been hidden away.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 in die illa cantabitur canticum istud in terra Iuda urbs fortitudinis nostrae salvator ponetur in ea murus et antemurale

2 aperite portas et ingrediatur gens iusta custodiens veritatem

3 vetus error abiit servabis pacem pacem quia in te speravimus

4 sperastis in Domino in saeculis aeternis in Domino Deo forti in perpetuum

5 quia incurvabit habitantes in excelso civitatem sublimem humiliabit humiliabit eam usque ad terram detrahet eam usque ad pulverem

6 conculcabit eam pes pedes pauperis gressus egenorum

7 semita iusti recta est rectus callis iusti ad ambulandum

8 et in semita iudiciorum tuorum Domine sustinuimus te nomen tuum et memoriale tuum in desiderio animae

9 anima mea desideravit te in nocte sed et spiritu meo in praecordiis meis de mane vigilabo ad te cum feceris iudicia tua in terra iustitiam discent habitatores orbis

10 misereamur impio et non discet iustitiam in terra sanctorum inique gessit et non videbit gloriam Domini

11 Domine exaltetur manus tua et non videant videant et confundantur zelantes populi et ignis hostes tuos devoret

12 Domine dabis pacem nobis omnia enim opera nostra operatus es nobis

13 Domine Deus noster possederunt nos domini absque te tantum in te recordemur nominis tui

14 morientes non vivant gigantes non resurgant propterea visitasti et contrivisti eos et perdidisti omnem memoriam eorum

15 indulsisti genti Domine indulsisti genti numquid glorificatus es elongasti omnes terminos terrae

16 Domine in angustia requisierunt te in tribulatione murmuris doctrina tua eis

17 sicut quae concipit cum adpropinquaverit ad partum dolens clamat in doloribus suis sic facti sumus a facie tua Domine

18 concepimus et quasi parturivimus et peperimus spiritum salutes non fecimus in terra ideo non ceciderunt habitatores terrae

19 vivent mortui tui interfecti mei resurgent expergiscimini et laudate qui habitatis in pulvere quia ros lucis ros tuus et terram gigantum detrahes in ruinam

20 vade populus meus intra in cubicula tua claude ostia tua super te abscondere modicum ad momentum donec pertranseat indignatio

21 ecce enim Dominus egreditur de loco suo ut visitet iniquitatem habitatoris terrae contra eum et revelabit terra sanguinem suum et non operiet ultra interfectos suos
