Isaiah 25:6-9
English Standard Version
6 (A)On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples
a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine,
(B)of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined.
7 And he will swallow up (C)on this mountain
the covering that is cast over all peoples,
(D)the veil that is spread over all nations.
8 (E)He will swallow up death forever;
and (F)the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces,
and (G)the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth,
(H)for the Lord has spoken.
9 It will be said on that day,
“Behold, this is our God; (I)we have waited for him, that he might save us.
This is the Lord; we have waited for him;
(J)let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.”
1 Corinthians 15:51-57
English Standard Version
51 Behold! I tell you a mystery. (A)We shall not all sleep, (B)but we shall all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For (C)the trumpet will sound, and (D)the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. 53 For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and (E)this mortal body must put on immortality. 54 When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written:
(F)“Death is swallowed up in victory.”
55 (G)“O death, where is your victory?
O death, where is your sting?”
56 The sting of death is sin, and (H)the power of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, (I)who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

John 14:1-6
English Standard Version
I Am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life
14 (A)“Let not your hearts be troubled. (B)Believe in God;[a] believe also in me. 2 In (C)my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that (D)I go to prepare a place for you?[b] 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you (E)to myself, that (F)where I am you may be also. 4 And you know the way to where I am going.”[c] 5 (G)Thomas said to him, “Lord, (H)we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am (I)the way, and (J)the truth, and (K)the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
