Context of Isaiah 26:4
2Open the gates so a righteous nation may enter— one that remains faithful. 3You will keep in perfect peace the steadfast of mind, because he trusts in You. Trust in the LORD forever, because GOD the LORD is the Rock eternal. 5For 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. 6Feet trample it down— the feet of the oppressed, the steps of the poor.
