Isaiah 25:1-5

God Will Swallow Up Death Forever

1 O Lord, ayou are my God;
bI will exalt you; I will praise your name,
for you have done wonderful things,
cplans formed of old, faithful and sure.
2For you have made the city da heap,
the fortified city a ruin;
the foreignerspalace is a city no more;
it will never be rebuilt.
3 eTherefore strong peoples will glorify you;
cities of ruthless nations will fear you.
4 fFor you have been a stronghold to the poor,
a stronghold to the needy in his distress,
ga shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat;
hfor the breath of the ruthless is like a storm against a wall,
5 ilike heat in a dry place.
You subdue the noise of the foreigners;
as heat by the shade of a cloud,
so the song of the ruthless is put down.
