¹In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah: we have a strong city; salvation will he appoint for walls and bulwarks.

¹Sel päeval lauldakse Juudamaal seda laulu: Meil on tugev linn, pääste on pandud müürideks ja kaitsevalliks.

²Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth faith may enter in.

²Avage väravad, et saaks sisse minna õige rahvas, kes püsib usus!

³Thou wilt keep [him] in perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed [on thee]; because he trusteth in thee.

³Kindlameelsele sa hoiad rahu, rahu, sest ta loodab sinu peale.

⁴Trust ye in Jehovah for ever; for in Jehovah, [even] Jehovah, is an everlasting rock.

⁴Lootke alati Issanda peale, sest Issand Jumal on igavene kalju.

⁵For he hath brought 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.

⁵Sest tema langetab need, kes elavad kõrgel, ligipääsmatu linna; ta alandab seda, alandab maani, paiskab põrmu.

⁶The foot shall tread it down; even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy.

⁶Seda tallab jalg, õnnetute jalad, viletsate sammud.

⁷The way of the just is uprightness: thou that art upright dost direct the path of the just.

⁷Õigete tee on tasane, sina sillutad siledaks õigete raja.

⁸Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O Jehovah, have we waited for thee; to thy name, even to thy memorial [name], is the desire of our soul.

⁸Issand! Me ootame sind ka su kohtumõistmiste teel, hing igatseb su nime ja su mälestust.

⁹With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee earnestly: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

⁹Mu hing igatseb sind öösel, vaimgi mu sees otsib sind, sest kui sinu kohtumõistmised tabavad maad, õpivad ilmamaa elanikud õiglust.

¹⁰Let favor be showed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness; in the land of uprightness will he deal wrongfully, and will not behold the majesty of Jehovah.

¹⁰Leiab aga õel armu, ei õpi ta õiglust, õigusemaalgi teeb ta ülekohut ega näe Issanda kõrgust.

¹¹Jehovah, thy hand is lifted up, yet they see not: but they shall see [thy] zeal for the people, and be put to shame; yea, fire shall devour thine adversaries.

¹¹Issand, sinu käsi on tõstetud kõrgele, aga nad ei näe seda. Nähku nad siis su püha viha rahva pärast ja häbenegu! Jah, neelaku neid tuli kui sinu vaenlasi!

¹²Jehovah, thou wilt ordain peace for us; for thou hast also wrought all our works for us.

¹²Issand, sina saadad meile rahu, sest kõik meie teodki oled sina teinud.

¹³O Jehovah our God, other lords besides thee have had dominion over us; but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.

¹³Issand, meie Jumal! Meid on valitsenud muud isandad peale sinu - me kiidame üksnes sind, sinu nime.

¹⁴[They are] dead, they shall not live; [they are] deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all remembrance of them to perish.

¹⁴Surnud ei ärka ellu, kadunud ei tõuse üles. Sest sina nuhtlesid neid ja hävitasid nad ning kaotasid neist iga mälestuse.

¹⁵Thou hast increased the nation, O Jehovah, thou hast increased the nation; thou art glorified; thou hast enlarged all the borders of the land.

¹⁵Sina oled lisanud rahvast, Issand, oled lisanud rahvast, oled näidanud oma au, oled laiendanud kõik maa piirid.

¹⁶Jehovah, in trouble have they visited thee; they poured out a prayer [when] thy chastening was upon them.

¹⁶Issand, nad otsisid sind kitsikuses, sosistasid lausumisi, kui sina neid karistasid.

¹⁷Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain and crieth out in her pangs; so we have been before thee, O Jehovah.

¹⁷Otsekui lapseootel olija, kel sünnitus ligineb, vaevleb ja kisendab oma valudes, nõnda olime meiegi sinu ees, Issand.

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.

¹⁸Me olime lapseootel, vaevlesime, aga otsekui oleksime sünnitanud tuult: päästet me maale ei toonud ja ilmamaa elanikke ei sündinud.

¹⁹Thy dead shall live; my dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in the dust; for thy dew is [as] the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast forth the dead.

¹⁹Aga sinu surnud ärkavad ellu, minu laibad tõusevad üles. Ärgake ja hõisake, põrmus lamajad! Sest sinu kaste on valguse kaste ja maa paiskab välja kadunud.

²⁰Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

²⁰Tule, mu rahvas, mine oma kambritesse ja sule uksed enese tagant, peitu üürikeseks ajaks, kuni raev möödub.

²¹For, behold, Jehovah cometh forth 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.

²¹Sest vaata, Issand väljub oma asupaigast nuhtlema maa elanikke nende ülekohtu pärast. Siis paljastab maa oma veresüü ega kata enam neid, kes ta peal on tapetud.
