I am presenting three different versions of Isaiah 26:3. I have never been able to find out which, if any, is closest to what Isaiah wrote. Can anyone offer some insight, please?
  • from the Douay:
    The old error is passed away: thou wilt keep peace: peace, because we have hoped in thee.
  • from the RSV:
    Thou dost keep him in perfect peace,
    whose mind is stayed on thee,
    because he trusts in thee.
  • from the New Jerusalem Bible:
    This is the plan decreed: you will guarantee peace,
    the peace entrusted to you.
And the NAB and the 1966 Jerusalem Bible offer two more variations.
 
I believe that this is might be joined to the ten words or commandments.

The commandments are promises and words and commandments.

Christ is Peace.

We are promised peace in Christ. He gives us peace and salvation.

God is love, you will not commit adultery.

God is truth, you will not lie.

God is life, you will not murder.
