Isaiah 25:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
25 A thanksgiving to God in that that he showeth himself judge of the world, by punishing the wicked, and maintaining the godly.
1 O Lord, thou [a]art my God: I will exalt thee, I will praise thy Name: for thou hast done wonderful things, according to the counsels of old, with a stable truth.
2 For thou hast made of a [b]city an heap, of a strong city, a ruin: even the place [c]of strangers of a city, it shall never be built.
3 Therefore shall the [d]mighty people give glory unto thee: the city of the strong nations shall fear thee.
