Bible Chapter Summary
Isaiah 26 Summary
The Strong City and Perfect Peace in Judah
In that day, a song is sung in Judah praising God's strong salvation and walls. The righteous nation keeping truth shall enter through open gates. The Lord keeps in perfect peace those whose minds are stayed upon Him through trust. The lofty city is brought low, and He ordains peace for His people, who have waited for Him in judgment. Though death once held dominion, God's dew raises the dead to life and song.
