1. In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah: We have a strong city; salvation doth he appoint for walls and bulwarks.
2. Open ye the gates, and the righteous nation which keepeth faithfulness shall enter in.
3. Thou wilt keep in perfect peace the mind stayed on thee, for he confideth in thee.
4. Confide ye in Jehovah for ever; for in Jah, Jehovah, is the rock of ages.
5. For he bringeth down them that dwell on high; the lofty city, he layeth it low, he layeth it low to the ground, he bringeth it even to the dust.
6. The foot shall tread it down, --the feet of the afflicted, the steps of the poor.
7. The way of the just is uprightness: thou, the Upright, dost make the path of the just even.
