Liturgical Year C
First Reading - Is 26:1-6
1In that day shall this canticle be sung the land of Juda. Sion the city of our strength a saviour, a wall and a bulwark shall be set therein.
2Open ye the gates, and let the just nation, that keepeth the truth, enter in.
3The old error is passed away: thou wilt keep peace: peace, because we have hoped in thee.
4You have hoped in the Lord for evermore, in the Lord God mighty for ever.
5For he shall bring down them that dwell on high, the high city he shall lay low. He shall bring it down even to the ground, he shall pull it down even to the dust.
6The foot shall tread it down, the feet of the poor, the steps of the needy.
