1. In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: "We have a strong city; He sets up walls and ramparts for security.
2. "Open the gates, that the righteous nation may enter, The one that remains faithful.
3. "The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace, Because he trusts in You.
4. "Trust in the Lord forever, For in God the Lord, we have an everlasting Rock.
5. "For He has brought low those who dwell on high, the unassailable city; He lays it low, He lays it low to the ground, He casts it to the dust.
6. "The foot will trample it, The feet of the afflicted, the steps of the helpless."
7. The way of the righteous is smooth; O Upright One, make the path of the righteous level.
8. Indeed, while following the way of Your judgments, O Lord, We have waited for You eagerly; Your name, even Your memory, is the desire of our souls.
