1In 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.
2Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in.
3Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
4Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:
5For 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.
6The foot shall tread it down, even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy.
7The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.
8Yea, 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.
9With 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.
10Let 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.
Isaiah 26 is a song of hope, peace, and eternal perspective—sung by those who belong to the City of God. It’s a declaration that even in a broken world, those who trust in the Lord are held in perfect peace. In contrast to the City of Man, built on pride, fear, and false security, the City of God stands strong—fortified by salvation, governed by truth, and led by King Jesus. This chapter calls us to fix our minds on the Lord, to lean not on our own understanding, and to rest in His everlasting strength. It reminds us that God’s peace isn’t the absence of problems—but His presence in them.
Each verse of Isaiah 26 invites us to choose where we live—not physically, but spiritually. Are we aligned with the world’s values or are we walking in the righteousness of the King? The song celebrates those who seek the Lord in the night, trust Him in trials, and desire His name above all. It challenges us to shift our focus, surrender our will, and find refuge in God’s promises. Whether you’re walking through hardship, wrestling with worry, or just hungry for deeper peace, Isaiah 26 invites you into the strong city—where perfect peace is found in a perfect Savior. Step in. Trust Him. And sing the song of the redeemed.
