ISAIAH 25:4, 6-10 (2025)

ISAIAH 25:4, 6, 8-10

For you have been a refuge to the poor,

    a refuge to the needy in their distress,

    a shelter from the rainstorm and a shade from the heat.

When the blast of the ruthless was like a winter rainstorm,

6 On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples

    a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wines,

    of rich food filled with marrow, of well-aged wines strained clear.

8     he will swallow up death forever.

Then the Lord God will wipe away the tears from all faces,

    and the disgrace of his people he will take away from all the earth,

    for the Lord has spoken.

9 It will be said on that day,

    Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, so that he might save us.

    This is the Lord for whom we have waited;

    let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

10 For the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain.
