Isaiah 25
|
|
| 25:1
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. |
|
| 25:2
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. |
|
| 25:3
Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible
nations shall fear thee. |
|
| 25:4
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. |
|
| 25:5
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. |
|
| 25:6
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. |
|
| 25:7
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. |
|
| 25:8
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. |
|
| 25:9
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. |
(25:9) "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."
What must you do to be saved?
|
| 25:10
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.
|
| 25:11
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. |
|
| 25:12
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.
