1In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]; We have a strong city; salvation will [God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]] appoint [for] walls and bulwarks.

2Open you^2f the gates, that the righteous nation which keeps the truth may enter in.

3youⁱ will keep [him] in perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] detained (held) [on youⁱ]: because he in youⁱ.

4Trust you^2f in the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) forever: for in the LORD- [Yah] (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Yehovah [is] everlasting strength:

5For he brings down them that dwell on high; the lofty city, he lays it low; he lays it low, [even] to the ground; he brings it [even] to the dust.

6The foot shall trample it down, [even] the feet of the poor, [and] the steps of the needy.

7The way of the just [is] uprightness: youⁱ, most upright, do weigh the path of the just.

8Yes, in the way of yourⁱ judgments, O LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), have we waited for youⁱ; the desire of [our] soul [is] to yourⁱ Name, and to the remembrance of youⁱ.

9With my soul have I desired youⁱ in the night; yes, with my spirit within me will I seek youⁱ early: for when yourⁱ judgments [are] in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

10Let favour be showed to the wicked, [yet] will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).

11LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), [when] yourⁱ hand is lifted up, they will not see: [but] they shall see, and be ashamed for [their] envy at the people; yes, the fire of yourⁱ enemies shall devour them.

12LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), youⁱ will ordain peace for us: for youⁱ also have wrought all our works in us.

13O LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) our God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], [other] lords beside youⁱ have had dominion over us: [but] by youⁱ only will we make mention of yourⁱ Name.

14[They are] dead, they shall not live; [they are] deceased, they shall not rise: therefore have youⁱ visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.

15youⁱ have increased the nation, O LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), youⁱ have increased the nation: youⁱ are glorified: youⁱ had removed [it] far [unto] all the ends of the earth.

16LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), in trouble have they visited youⁱ, they poured out a prayer [when] yourⁱ chastening [was] upon them.

17Like as a woman with child, [that] draws near the time of her delivery, is in pain, [and] cries out in her pangs (extreme sharp pains); so have we been in yourⁱ sight, O LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).

18We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were have given birth to wind; we have not brought any salvation in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world born.

19Your1s dead [men] shall live, [together with] my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, you^2f that dwell in dust: for yourⁱ dew [is as] the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

20Come, my people, enter youⁱ into yourⁱ chambers, and shut yourⁱ doors about youⁱ: hide yourself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

21For, behold, the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
