The Song of Judah: Trust in the Everlasting Rock, Resurrection Hope, and Hidden Refuge Until Judgment Passes
The chapter moves from Judah’s song about a strong city whose walls are salvation, to the opening of gates for the righteous nation, to the promise of perfect peace for the steadfast mind, to the command to trust the LORD forever as the everlasting Rock, to the humiliation of the lofty city, to the righteous path and desire for the LORD’s name, to the failure of wickedness to learn righteousness, to confession that only the LORD establishes peace, to lament over other lords, to resurrection hope, and finally to a call for God’s people to hide until the LORD comes to punish the earth’s guilt.

19 Your dead will live; their bodies will rise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust! For your dew is like the dew of the morning, and the earth will bring forth her dead.
20 Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourselves a little while until the wrath has passed.
21 For behold, the LORD is coming out of His dwelling to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity. The earth will reveal her bloodshed and will no longer conceal her slain.
