1On that day, this banger will be sung in Judah; we got a solid city; God’s got salvation on lock for walls and defenses.

2Open the gates, so the righteous squad that keeps it real can roll in.

3You’ll keep that one in perfect peace, whose mind is vibin’ on you: ‘cause they trust you, no cap.

4Trust in the Lord forever: ‘cause in the Lord Jehovah is that everlasting strength, fr.

5He’s bringing down the high-key people; the boujee city gets laid low; straight to the ground, he’s dusting it.

6The foot’s gonna stomp it down, even the kicks of the poor, and the steps of the needy.

7The path of the just is all about that straight vibe: you, most upright, weigh the just path.

8Yeah, in your judgments, O Lord, we’ve been waiting for you; our soul’s craving your name and the memory of you.

9With my soul, I’ve been wanting you at night; yeah, with my spirit, I’ll seek you early: ‘cause when your judgments hit the earth, the world will catch on to righteousness.

10Show some favor to the wicked, but they still won’t catch the vibe of righteousness: in the land of the real ones, they’ll still act sus and won’t see the Lord’s majesty.

11Lord, when your hand is up, they won’t see: but they’ll see and feel shame for their envy at the squad; yeah, the fire of your enemies will consume them.

12Lord, you’re setting peace for us: ‘cause you’ve been doing all our works in us.

13O Lord our God, other lords have had their time over us: but we’ll only mention your name, periodt.

14They’re dead, they won’t live; they’re gone, they won’t rise: you’ve visited and wiped them out, making all their memory vanish.

15You’ve boosted the nation, O Lord, you’ve boosted the nation: you’re getting all the glory; you’ve spread it far to the ends of the earth.

16Lord, in trouble, they’ve hit you up, pouring out a prayer when your discipline was on them.

17Like a woman about to pop, feeling that delivery pain, she’s crying out; that’s how we’ve been in your sight, O Lord.

18We’ve been pregnant with pain, we’ve been hurting, it’s like we’ve brought forth wind; we haven’t brought any deliverance in the earth; the world’s inhabitants haven’t fallen.

19Your dead will live, my dead body will rise with them. Wake up and sing, you who chill in the dust: your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth will throw out the dead.

20Come, my people, slide into your chambers and shut your doors: hide for a sec until the drama passes.

21For, check it, the Lord’s coming out of his spot to punish the earth’s inhabitants for their wrongdoings: the earth will spill her blood and won’t cover her slain anymore.

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.
