Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
In that day sung
is
this song in the land of Judah :
`
We have a strong city ,
Salvation He
doth
make
walls and bulwark
.
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
.
Open ye the gates, that enter
may
a
righteous nation ,
Preserving
stedfastness
.
Open ye the gates, that the
righteous nation which
keepeth
the
truth
may
enter
in
.
An
imagination
supported
Thou fortifiest
peace
--
peace !
For
in Thee it
is
confident
.
Thou wilt
keep
him
in
perfect
peace ,
whose
mind
is
stayed
on
thee:
because
he
trusteth
in thee.
Trust ye in Jehovah
for ever ,
For in Jah
Jehovah `
is '
a
rock
of
ages,
Trust ye in the
LORD
for ever :
for in the
LORD
JEHOVAH is everlasting
strength:
For He bowed
down the
dwellers
on high ,
A
city set
on
high
He maketh
low ,
He maketh
it low unto
the
earth
, He causeth
it to come
unto
the dust ,
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 .
Tread it down doth
a
foot
, Feet of the poor --
steps of the weak
.
The
foot
shall
tread it down, even
the
feet of the poor ,
and
the
steps of the needy
.
The path
for
the righteous
`
is '
uprightness, O
upright One
, The path of the righteous
Thou
dost
ponder
.
The way
of
the just
is uprightness :
thou
, most
upright, dost
weigh
the path of the just
.
Also
, `
in '
the path
of Thy judgments, O Jehovah
, we
have waited `
for '
Thee ,
To Thy name and to Thy
remembrance
`Is'
the desire
of the
soul
.
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 I desired Thee in the night ,
Also
, `
with '
my spirit within me I seek Thee earnestly,
For when Thy judgments `
are '
on
the earth, The inhabitants of the world have
learned
righteousness.
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.
The wicked findeth
favour
, He hath
not learned
righteousness ,
In a
land of straightforwardness
he dealeth
perversely
, And seeth
not the excellency
of Jehovah
.
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
.
O
Jehovah
, high
`is'
Thy hand --
they see
not ,
They see the
zeal
of
the
people
, and are
ashamed ,
Also
, the fire --
Thine adversaries,
consumeth
them.
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.
O
Jehovah
, Thou appointest
peace to
us ,
For ,
all
our
works
also
Thou hast wrought for
us.
LORD
, thou wilt
ordain
peace for
us :
for thou also
hast wrought all
our
works
in
us.
O Jehovah
our God, lords have ruled
us besides
Thee,
Only,
by Thee we make mention of Thy name.
O LORD
our God, other
lords beside
thee
have had
dominion
over
us :
but
by thee only
will
we make mention of thy name.
Dead --
they live
not ,
Rephaim
, they rise
not ,
Therefore Thou
hast inspected
and dost
destroy
them, Yea,
thou
destroyest
all their memory.
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 added
to
the nation, O Jehovah
, Thou hast added
to
the nation ,
Thou hast
been
honoured,
Thou hast
put
far off
all the ends of earth.
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.
O
Jehovah
, in distress
they missed
Thee, They have
poured out a whisper,
Thy chastisement
`is'
on
them.
LORD
, in trouble
have
they visited
thee, they poured out a prayer
when
thy chastening
was
upon
them.
When
a pregnant
woman cometh
near to
the birth
, She
is pained
--
she
crieth in her pangs ,
So we
have been from
Thy face
, O Jehovah
.
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 conceived
, we have been pained.
We have brought
forth
as it were wind ,
Salvation
we do
not work
in the earth ,
Nor
do
the inhabitants of the world fall
.
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 live --
My dead body they rise
. Awake and sing, ye dwellers
in the
dust ,
For the dew of herbs `is'
thy
dew
, And the land
of
Rephaim
thou
causest
to
fall
.
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
.
Come, My people, enter into thy inner
chambers, And shut thy doors behind
thee ,
Hide thyself shortly
a moment till
the indignation pass
over
.
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
.
For, lo
, Jehovah
is
coming
out of His place ,
To charge
the
iniquity
of
the inhabitant
of the earth upon
him,
And
revealed
hath
the earth her blood, Nor
doth
she
cover
any
more her slain !'
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 .
