Isaiah 25

Names of God Bible

25 O Yahweh, you are my Elohim.
    I will highly honor you; I will praise your name.
    You have done miraculous things.
    You have been completely reliable
        in carrying out your plans from long ago.
² You have turned cities into ruins,
    fortified cities into piles of rubble,
        and foreigners’ palaces into cities that will never be rebuilt.
³ That is why strong people will honor you,
    and cities ruled by the world’s tyrants will fear you.
⁴ You have been a refuge for the poor,
    a refuge for the needy in their distress,
    a shelter from the rain, and shade from the heat.
    (A tyrant’s breath is like a rainstorm against a wall,
⁵ like heat in a dry land.)
    You calm the uproar of foreigners.
    The song of tyrants is silenced
        like heat that is reduced by the shadow of a cloud.

⁶ On this mountain Yahweh Tsebaoth will prepare for all people
    a feast with the best foods,
    a banquet with aged wines,
        with the best foods and the finest wines.
⁷ On this mountain he will remove
    the veil of grief covering all people
        and the mask covering all nations.
⁸ He will swallow up death forever.
    Adonay Yahweh will wipe away tears from every face,
    and he will remove the disgrace of his people from the whole earth.
        Yahweh has spoken.
⁹ On that day his people will say,
    “This is our Elohim; we have waited for him, and now he will save us.
    This is Yahweh; we have waited for him.
        Let us rejoice and be glad because he will save us.”
