Isaiah 26:1-8

1 At that time people will sing this song in Judah: We have a strong city. God protects us with its strong walls and defenses.
2 Open the gates, and the good people will enter, those who follow God.
3 You, Lord, give true peace to those who depend on you, because they trust you.
4 So, trust the Lord always, because he is our Rock forever.
5 He will destroy the proud city, and he will punish the people living there. He will bring that high city down to the ground and throw it down into the dust.
6 Then those who were hurt by the city will walk on its ruins; those who were made poor by the city will trample it under their feet.
7 The path of life is level for those who are right with God; Lord, you make the way of life smooth for those people.
8 But, Lord, we are waiting for your way of justice. Our souls want to remember you and your name.
