Isaiah 26:7

Read in context

Isaiah 26:5–9 · Berean Standard Bible

5 For He has humbled those who dwell on high; He lays the lofty city low. He brings it down to the ground; He casts it into the dust.

6 Feet trample it down— the feet of the oppressed, the steps of the poor.

7 The path of the righteous is level; You clear a straight path for the upright.

8 Yes, we wait for You, O LORD; we walk in the path of Your judgments. Your name and renown are the desire of our souls.

9 My soul longs for You in the night; indeed, my spirit seeks You at dawn. For when Your judgments come upon the earth, the people of the world learn righteousness.
