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.

περίτειχος

Open
ye the gates,
that the righteous
nation
which keepeth
the truth
may enter in.
Thou wilt keep
him in perfect
peace,
whose mind
is stayed
on thee: because he trusteth
in thee.
Trust
ye in the LORD
for ever:
for in the LORD
JEHOVAH
is everlasting
strength:
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.
The foot
shall tread it down,
even the feet
of the poor,
and the steps
of the needy.
The way
of the just
is uprightness:
thou, most upright,
dost weigh
the path
of the just.
Yea, in the way
of thy judgments,
O LORD,
have we waited
for thee; the desire
of our soul
is to thy name,
and to the remembrance
of thee.
With my soul
have I desired
thee in the night;
yea, with my spirit
within
me will I seek thee early:
for when thy judgments
are in the earth,
the inhabitants
of the world
will learn
righteousness.

Let favour be shewed
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.
LORD,
when thy hand
is lifted up,
they will not see:
but they shall see,
and be ashamed
for their envy
at the people;
yea, the fire
of thine enemies
shall devour
them.

ᾔδεισαν

LORD,
thou wilt ordain
peace
for us: for thou also hast wrought
all our works
in us.
O LORD
our God,
other lords
beside
thee have had dominion
over us: but by thee only will we make mention
of thy name.
They are dead,
they shall not live;
they are deceased,
they shall not rise:
therefore hast thou visited
and destroyed
them, and made all their memory
to perish.
Thou hast increased
the nation,
O LORD,
thou hast increased
the nation:
thou art glorified:
thou hadst removed it far
unto all the ends
of the earth.
LORD,
in trouble
have they visited
thee, they poured out
a prayer
when thy chastening
was upon them.
Like
as a woman with child,
that draweth near
the time of her delivery,
is in pain,
and crieth out
in her pangs;
so have we been in thy sight,
O LORD.
We have been with child,
we have been in pain,
we have as it were
brought forth
wind;
we have not wrought
any deliverance
in the earth;
neither
have the inhabitants
of the world
fallen.
Thy dead
men shall live,
together with my dead body
shall they arise.
Awake
and sing,
ye that dwell
in dust:
for thy dew
is as the dew
of herbs,
and the earth
shall cast out
the dead.
dew
δρόσος
drosos
Come,
my people,
enter
thou into thy chambers,
and shut
thy doors
about thee: hide
thyself as it were for a little
moment,
until the indignation
be overpast.
proceed
βάδιζε
badize
For, behold, the LORD
cometh 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.
