Old Testament

New Testament

Isaiah 26:6-13 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. The foot shall tread it down,even the feet of the poorand the steps of the needy.

7. The way of the righteous is smooth;O Upright One, make the path of the righteous level.

8. In the way of Your judgments, O Lord,we have waited for You eagerly;the desire of our souls is Your name,even Your memory.

9. With my soul I have desired You in the night;my spirit within me seeks You diligently;for when Your judgments are in the earth,the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

10. Though favor is shown to the wicked,yet he will not learn righteousness;in the land of uprightness he deals unjustlyand does not perceive the majesty of the Lord.

11. Lord, Your hand is lifted up,but they do not see it.They see Your zeal for the people and are put to shame;the fire of Your enemies shall devour them.

12. Lord, You will ordain peace for us,for You also have done all our works for us.

13. O Lord our God, other lords besides You have had dominion over us,but through You alone we confess Your name.
