Praise to the Lord

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:1 - LORD, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:2 - You have made the city a heap of rubble, the fortified town a ruin, the foreigners’ stronghold a city no more; it will never be rebuilt.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:3 - Therefore strong peoples will honor you; cities of ruthless nations will revere you.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:4 - You have been a refuge for the poor, a refuge for the needy in their distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat. For the breath of the ruthless is like a storm driving against a wall
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:5 - and like the heat of the desert. You silence the uproar of foreigners; as heat is reduced by the shadow of a cloud, so the song of the ruthless is stilled.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:6 - On this mountain the LORD Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine— the best of meats and the finest of wines.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:7 - On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations;
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:8 - he will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign LORD will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove his people’s disgrace from all the earth.

The LORD has spoken.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:9 - In that day they will say, “Surely this is our God; we trusted in him, and he saved us. This is the LORD, we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation.”
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:10 - The hand of the LORD will rest on this mountain; but Moab will be trampled in their land as straw is trampled down in the manure.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:11 - They will stretch out their hands in it, as swimmers stretch out their hands to swim. God will bring down their pride despite the cleverness[fn] of their hands.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 25:12 - He will bring down your high fortified walls and lay them low; he will bring them down to the ground, to the very dust.
