Isaiah:25
Seeker Overlay ON
*
O LORD ,
thou art my God ;
I will exalt thee ,
I will praise thy name ;
for thou hast done wonderful things ;
thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth .
*
For thou hast made of a city an heap ;
of a defenced city a ruin :
a palace of strangers to be no city ;
it shall never be built .
*
Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee ,
the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee .
*
For thou hast been a strength to the poor ,
a strength to the needy in his distress ,
a refuge from the storm ,
a shadow from the heat ,
when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall .
*
Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers ,
as the heat in a dry place ;
even the heat with the shadow of a cloud :
the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low .
*
And in this mountain shall the LORD of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things ,
a feast of wines on the lees ,
of fat things full of marrow ,
of wines on the lees well refined .
*
And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people ,
and the vail that is spread over all nations .
*
He will swallow up death in victory ;
and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces ;
and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth :
for the LORD hath spoken it .
*
And it shall be said in that day ,
Lo ,
this is our God ;
we have waited for him ,
and he will save us :
this is the LORD ;
we have waited for him ,
we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation y @

*
For in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest ,
and Moab shall be trodden down under him ,
even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill b @

*
And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them ,
as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim :
and he shall bring down their pride together with the spoils of their hands .
*
And the fortress of the high fort of thy walls shall he bring down ,
lay low ,
and bring to the ground ,
even to the dust .
