1 In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah; We have a strong city; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks. |
2 Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in. |
3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. |
4 Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength: |
5 For he bringeth down them that dwell on high; the lofty city, he layeth it low; he layeth it low, even to the ground; he bringeth it even to the dust. |
6 The foot shall tread it down, even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy. |
