Isaiah 26:6–10 · Berean Standard Bible

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.

10 Though grace is shown to the wicked man, he does not learn righteousness. In the land of righteousness he acts unjustly and fails to see the majesty of the LORD.
