Isaiah 25:4-8
New King James Version
4 For You have been a strength to the poor,
A strength to the needy in his distress,
(A)A refuge from the storm,
A shade from the heat;
For the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.
5 You will reduce the noise of aliens,
As heat in a dry place;
As heat in the shadow of a cloud,
The song of the terrible ones will be [a]diminished.
6 And in (B)this mountain
(C)The Lord of hosts will make for (D)all people
A feast of [b]choice pieces,
A feast of [c]wines on the lees,
Of fat things full of marrow,
Of well-refined wines on the lees.
7 And He will destroy on this mountain
The surface of the covering cast over all people,
And (E)the veil that is spread over all nations.
8 He will (F)swallow up death forever,
And the Lord God will (G)wipe away tears from all faces;
The rebuke of His people
He will take away from all the earth;
For the Lord has spoken.

Isaiah 51:11-12
New King James Version
11 So (A)the ransomed of the Lord shall return,
And come to Zion with singing,
With everlasting joy on their heads.
They shall obtain joy and gladness;
Sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
12 “I, even I, am He (B)who comforts you.
Who are you that you should be afraid
(C)Of a man who will die,
And of the son of a man who will be made (D)like grass?
