Isaiah 26:1-8

At that time people will sing this song in Judah: We have a strong city. God protects us with its strong walls and defenses. Open the gates, and the good people will enter, those who follow God. You, LORD, give true peace to those who depend on you, because they trust you. So, trust the LORD always, because he is our Rock forever. 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. 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. The path of life is level for those who are right with God; LORD, you make the way of life smooth for those people. But, LORD, we are waiting for your way of justice. Our souls want to remember you and your name.
