Isaiah 25:1–9

SALVATION AND JUDGMENT ON THAT DAY

25 Lord, you are my God;h

I will exalt you. I will praise your name,

for you have accomplished wonders,

plans formed long ago, with perfect faithfulness.

For you have turned the city into a pile of rocks,i

a fortified city, into ruins;

the fortress of barbariansj is no longer a city;

it will never be rebuilt.

Therefore, a strong people will honor you.

The cities of violent nations will fear you.

For you have been a stronghold for the poor person,

a stronghold for the needyk in his distress,

a refuge from storms and a shade from heat.l

When the breath of the violent

is like a storm against a wall,

like heat in a dry land,

you will subdue the uproar of barbarians.

As the shade of a cloud cools the heat of the day,

so he will silence the song of the violent.

On this mountain,A,m

the Lord of Armies will prepare for all the peoples a feast of choice meat,n

a feast with aged wine, prime cuts of choice meat,B fine vintage wine.

On this mountain

he will swallow up the burial shroud,

the shroud over all the peoples,

the sheet covering all the nations.o

When he has swallowed up death once and for all,p

the Lord God will wipe away the tears

from every faceq

and remove his people’s disgracer

from the whole earth,

for the Lord has spoken.

On that day it will be said,

“Look, this is our God;

we have waited for him, and he has saved us.

This is the Lord; we have waited for him.

Let’s rejoice and be glad in his salvation.”s
