Context of Isaiah 26:3
1On that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: We have a strong city. Salvation is established as walls and ramparts. 2Open the gates so a righteous nation can come in — one that remains faithful. You will keep the mind that is dependent on you in perfect peace, for it is trusting in you. 4Trust in the Lord forever, because in the Lord, the Lord himself, is an everlasting rock! 5For he has humbled those who live in lofty places — an inaccessible city. He brings it down; he brings it down to the ground; he throws it to the dust.
