In context

1In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: 2Open the gates so a righteous nation may enter— 3You will keep in perfect peace the steadfast of mind, 4Trust in the LORD forever, 5For He has humbled those who dwell on high; 6Feet trample it down — 7The path of the righteous is level; 8Yes, we wait for You, O LORD; 9My soul longs for You in the night; 10Though grace is shown to the wicked man, 11O LORD, Your hand is upraised, 12O LORD, You will establish peace for us. 13O LORD our God, other lords besides You have ruled over us, 14The dead will not live; 15You have enlarged the nation, O LORD; 16O LORD, they sought You in their distress; 17As a woman with child about to give birth 18We were with child; we writhed in pain; 19Your dead will live; their bodies will rise. 20Go, my people, enter your rooms 21For behold, the LORD is coming out of His dwelling
