1In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: 'We have a strong city; salvation he sets for walls and bulwarks. 2Open the gates, that a righteous nation may enter, one keeping faith. 3A supported mind you will safeguard in peace, peace, because it is trusting in you. 4Trust in the LORD forever and ever, for in Yah, the LORD, is an everlasting Rock. 5For he has brought down the inhabitants of the height, the lofty city; he lays it low, he lays it low to the earth, he brings it down to the dust. 6A foot will trample it, the feet of the afflicted, the steps of the poor. 7The path for the righteous is uprightness; O Upright One, you level the way of a righteous one. 8Also in the path of your judgments, O LORD, we have waited for you; to your name and to your memory is the desire of our soul. 9My soul desires you in the night; also my spirit within me seeks you earnestly, for when your judgments are in the earth, righteousness they learn, the inhabitants of the world. 10Though grace is shown to the wicked, he does not learn righteousness; in a land of uprightness he deals unjustly, and does not see the majesty of the LORD. 11O LORD, your hand is lifted up, but they do not see; let them see your zeal for the people and be put to shame; also, the fire for your adversaries will consume them. 12O LORD, you will ordain peace for us, for also all our works you have worked for us. 13O LORD our God, lords besides you have lorded over us; but only by you do we make mention of your name. 14The dead do not live, the shades do not rise; therefore you have visited and destroyed them, and made all memory of them perish. 15You have added to the nation, O LORD, you have added to the nation; you are glorified; you have extended all the borders of the earth. 16O LORD, in distress they visited you; they poured out a whisper when your discipline was upon them. 17As a pregnant woman drawing near to delivery writhes and cries out in her pangs, so we have been before you, O LORD. 18We conceived, we writhed, we gave birth as it were to wind; salvation we do not work in the earth, and the inhabitants of the world do not fall. 19Your dead will live; my corpse, they will rise. Awake and sing for joy, you dwellers in the dust! For your dew is a dew of light, and the earth will cast out the shades. 20Go, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourself for a brief moment, until the wrath is past. 21For look, the LORD is coming out of his place to visit the iniquity of the inhabitant of the earth upon him; and the earth will disclose her bloodshed, and will no longer cover her slain.

Universally, Christian traditions agree that Isaiah 26 contrasts a secure, divinely protected city of the righteous with a lofty, proud city that God brings down to the dust. It is broadly held that human attempts to produce righteousness and earthly deliverance apart from God are futile, and that the promise of perfect peace is a subjective, experiential reality for the believer whose mind rests completely on God.

Catholic

Isaiah 26 functions as an eschatological hymn of thanksgiving to be sung in Judah 'in that day,' following the cosmic judgments of the preceding chapters. It contrasts the secure, righteous city of God (vv. 1-2) with the arrogant 'lofty city' that Yahweh lays in the dust (v. 5). The prophet expresses a profound personal and corporate longing for God's judgments (vv. 8-9) and acknowledges that Israel's own efforts to bring salvation were as futile as a woman in labor giving 'birth... only to wind' (v. 18). The hymn culminates in a radical declaration of hope: the bodily resurrection of the righteous dead, awakened by a life-giving divine dew (v. 19). The chapter concludes with an injunction for God's people to hide in protective chambers while the divine wrath passes over the earth to punish iniquity (vv. 20-21). Reception: The Catholic communion reads this chapter through ecclesiological, soteriological, and eschatological lenses. Augustine seizes upon the juxtaposition of the 'strong city' (v. 1) and the 'lofty city' (v. 5) as a prophetic foundation for his doctrine of the two cities—the Heavenly City oriented toward God's peace and the Earthly City rooted in pride. On the theology of grace, Augustine explicitly utilizes the Latin reading of verse 12 ('thou hast wrought all our works in us') to counter Pelagianism, establishing the Magisterial principle—later affirmed by the Council of Trent—that human merit is fundamentally God crowning His own gracious work within the believer. In both the Latin and Eastern Catholic traditions, verse 19 ('Thy dead shall live') is received as a paramount Old Testament witness to the bodily resurrection. Cyril of Jerusalem marshals verse 19 to instruct catechumens on the certainty of physical resurrection, while Irenaeus identifies the life-giving 'dew' of verse 19 with the Holy Spirit, who will quicken mortal flesh at the end of the age.

Eastern Orthodox

In its immediate prophetic context, Isaiah 26 is a song of victory and trust intended for the land of Judah. It juxtaposes two cities: the 'strong city' of God's salvation (verses 1-4) and the 'lofty city' of human pride that God brings down to the dust (verses 5-6). The prophet voices the collective faithful remnant, expressing an intense, personal yearning for God's righteous judgments to be manifest in the earth (verses 8-9). The chapter shifts from present suffering and seemingly fruitless labor (verses 17-18) to a dramatic, climactic declaration of hope: the bodily resurrection of the dead (verse 19), followed by an invitation for God's people to take refuge in their chambers until the divine wrath upon the wicked has passed (verses 20-21). Reception: The Eastern Orthodox reception of Isaiah 26 is profoundly shaped by the Septuagint (LXX) translation and its integration into the Church's daily liturgical life. Where the Masoretic text of verse 9 speaks of desiring God 'in the night' and seeking Him 'earnestly,' the Septuagint reads: 'Out of the night my spirit wakens at dawn unto Thee, O God, for Thy commandments are a light upon the earth.' This specific phrasing (incorporating the Greek verb 'orthrizei'—to rise early at dawn) fundamentally anchors the Orthodox theology of morning prayer, bridging the physical transition from night to day with the spiritual transition from sin to the light of Christ. Patristic commentators, such as John Chrysostom, utilized verses 8-9 to advocate for rigorous ascetic vigilance and nocturnal prayer. Furthermore, verse 19 ('Thy dead shall live') is historically foundational for Orthodox eschatology. Early Fathers, notably Irenaeus of Lyons, wielded this verse against Gnostic spiritualizations of the afterlife, insisting it constitutes an explicit Old Testament guarantee of the physical resurrection of the material body, which will be vivified by the 'dew' of God's grace.

Oriental Orthodox

Isaiah 26 functions as an eschatological hymn of praise following the apocalyptic judgments of chapters 24-25. It contrasts the impregnable "strong city" of the righteous, protected by God's salvation (vv. 1-4), with the "lofty city" of the proud that is laid low (vv. 5-6). The prophet voices a profound, individual longing for God's justice and presence, particularly in the night (vv. 8-9). The text moves through reflections on human inadequacy and suffering (vv. 16-18) to a dramatic climax declaring the bodily resurrection of the dead (v. 19), ending with a command for God's people to take refuge while divine wrath falls upon the earth (vv. 20-21). Reception: The Oriental Orthodox tradition receives this chapter as a profound prophecy concerning the Church, the general resurrection, and the inner life of the believer. Reading the text typologically, the miaphysite fathers identified the "strong city" of verse 1 as the Church. Cyril of Alexandria taught that this spiritual Zion is walled not by earthly stones, but by the salvation of Christ Himself, open to the "righteous nation" of believers who keep the orthodox faith. The chapter's striking assertion of resurrection (v. 19) is central to the tradition's eschatology. Cyril interpreted "Thy dead men shall live" as the definitive defeat of death achieved through the Incarnate Word. The "dew" that revives the dust is understood as the Holy Spirit—the life-giving breath of the indivisible Trinity that restores fallen human nature. Ascetically, the command to "enter into thy chambers" (v. 20) is read not merely as a historical instruction to avoid judgment, but as an enduring call to inner watchfulness. Within the monastic centers of Egypt, Syria, and Ethiopia, these "chambers" are interpreted as the inner sanctuary of the heart, where the mind is shut against worldly distractions and demonic passions, waiting in stillness for God's peace.

1In that day, this song will be sung in the land of Judah: “We have a strong city. God appoints salvation for walls and bulwarks. 2Open the gates, that the righteous nation may enter: the one which keeps faith. 3You will keep whoever’s mind is steadfast in perfect peace, because he trusts in you. 4Trust in Yahweh forever; for in Yah, Yahweh, is an everlasting Rock. 5For he has brought down those who dwell on high, the lofty city. He lays it low. He lays it low even to the ground. He brings 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. You who are upright make the path of the righteous level. 8Yes, in the way of your judgments, Yahweh, we have waited for you. Your name and your renown are the desire of our soul. 9With my soul I have desired you in the night. Yes, with my spirit within me I will seek you earnestly; for when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness. 10Let favor be shown to the wicked, yet he will not learn righteousness. In the land of uprightness he will deal wrongfully, and will not see Yahweh’s majesty. 11Yahweh, your hand is lifted up, yet they don’t see; but they will see your zeal for the people and be disappointed. Yes, fire will consume your adversaries. 12Yahweh, you will ordain peace for us, for you have also done all our work for us. 13Yahweh our God, other lords besides you have had dominion over us, but we will only acknowledge your name. 14The dead shall not live. The departed spirits shall not rise. Therefore you have visited and destroyed them, and caused all memory of them to perish. 15You have increased the nation, O Yahweh. You have increased the nation! You are glorified! You have enlarged all the borders of the land. 16Yahweh, in trouble they have visited you. They poured out a prayer when your chastening was on them. 17Just as a woman with child, who draws near the time of her delivery, is in pain and cries out in her pangs, so we have been before you, Yahweh. 18We have been with child. We have been in pain. We gave birth, it seems, only to wind. We have not worked any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen. 19Your dead shall live. Their dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust; for your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth will cast out the departed spirits. 20Come, my people, enter into your rooms, and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourself for a little moment, until the indignation is past. 21For, behold, Yahweh comes out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity. The earth also will disclose her blood, and will no longer cover her slain.

KJV · King James Version

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. 11Lord, 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. 12Lord, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us. 13O Lord our God, other lords beside thee have had dominion over us: but by thee only will we make mention of thy name. 14They 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. 15Thou 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. 16Lord, in trouble have they visited thee, they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was upon them. 17Like 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. 18We 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. 19Thy 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. 20Come, 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. 21For, 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.

Academic textual-historical analysis

In academic textual-historical analysis, Isaiah 26 is understood as an eschatological hymn and communal lament embedded within the so-called 'Isaiah Apocalypse' (chapters 24–27). The chapter weaves together a song of thanksgiving for a future vindication (vv. 1–6), wisdom-like reflections on righteousness and divine judgment (vv. 7–10), and a communal lament detailing the nation's historical suffering and apparent futility (vv. 11–18). The text contrasts the 'strong city' of Yahweh's protection (v. 1) with the 'lofty city' of the oppressors (v. 5), reflecting a stark, proto-apocalyptic dualism. A central philological focus rests on the term 'Rephaim' (departed spirits/shades) in verses 14 and 19. In ancient Near Eastern cosmology, the Rephaim inhabited the underworld (Sheol). Verse 14 declares that the foreign oppressors are dead and will not rise (using the term Rephaim), emphasizing their permanent destruction. However, the chapter reaches an astonishing climax in verse 19, where a divine oracle or prophetic response breaks the lament of verse 18 with the declaration, 'Your dead shall live.' The chapter concludes with a proto-apocalyptic summons for the people to hide in their chambers while Yahweh executes cosmic judgment upon the earth (vv. 20–21).

Jewish interpretation

In its immediate prophetic context, Isaiah 26 is an eschatological song of thanksgiving set in the 'day' of God's future vindication. Functioning within the apocalyptic visions of Isaiah 24-27, the chapter contrasts a 'strong city' (Jerusalem), whose walls are divine salvation, with a 'lofty city' (the seat of imperial oppression) that God levels to the dust. The poem gives voice to the faithful remnant who have waited for God's judgments in the night. It wrestles with the prolonged delay of divine justice and national restoration, comparing the nation's futile efforts to a woman in fruitless labor who brings forth only wind (vv. 17-18). The song climaxes in a striking declaration of physical restoration and bodily resurrection for the righteous dead (v. 19), followed by an urgent command for the people to shelter in their chambers while God's wrath punishes the wicked inhabitants of the earth (vv. 20-21).

Latter-day Saint

In its immediate context, Isaiah 26 functions as a prophetic song of thanksgiving and trust. It praises Jehovah as an everlasting rock who defends the righteous while humbling the lofty and wicked city (verses 1-6). The text transitions into a yearning for God's judgments, which teach righteousness (verses 7-10). It culminates in a striking prophecy where the dead shall live and awake from the dust (verse 19), followed by a divine command for the people to enter their chambers and hide from the impending indignation and punishment that God will unleash upon the earth (verses 20-21).

Jehovah's Witnesses

In its original setting, Isaiah 26 is a prophetic song of victory for the restored nation of Judah. It contrasts the lofty, oppressive city, which Jehovah brings down to the dust, with the strong city of God's people whose walls are salvation. The prophet expresses a deep yearning for Jehovah's name and judgments. The text draws a stark contrast between the ultimate fate of Israel's past oppressors, who are dead and will never rise, and the promise for God's faithful, whose dead will live again. Finally, the chapter calls God's people to hide in their chambers while Jehovah comes out of his place to execute his wrath on the earth.
