Praise to the Lord
25 Lord, you are my God;(A)
I will exalt you and praise your name,(B)
for in perfect faithfulness(C)
you have done wonderful things,(D)
things planned(E) long ago.
2 You have made the city a heap of rubble,(F)
the fortified(G) town a ruin,(H)
the foreigners’ stronghold(I) a city no more;
it will never be rebuilt.(J)
3 Therefore strong peoples will honor you;(K)
cities of ruthless(L) nations will revere you.
4 You have been a refuge(M) for the poor,(N)
a refuge for the needy(O) in their distress,
a shelter from the storm(P)
and a shade from the heat.
For the breath of the ruthless(Q)
is like a storm driving against a wall
5 and like the heat of the desert.
You silence(R) the uproar of foreigners;(S)
as heat is reduced by the shadow of a cloud,
so the song of the ruthless(T) is stilled.

Isaiah 29:17-24
New International Version
17 In a very short time,(A) will not Lebanon(B) be turned into a fertile field(C)
and the fertile field seem like a forest?(D)
18 In that day(E) the deaf(F) will hear the words of the scroll,
and out of gloom and darkness(G)
the eyes of the blind will see.(H)
19 Once more the humble(I) will rejoice in the Lord;
the needy(J) will rejoice in the Holy One(K) of Israel.
20 The ruthless(L) will vanish,(M)
the mockers(N) will disappear,
and all who have an eye for evil(O) will be cut down—
21 those who with a word make someone out to be guilty,
who ensnare the defender in court(P)
and with false testimony(Q) deprive the innocent of justice.(R)
22 Therefore this is what the Lord, who redeemed(S) Abraham,(T) says to the descendants of Jacob:
“No longer will Jacob be ashamed;(U)
no longer will their faces grow pale.(V)
23 When they see among them their children,(W)
the work of my hands,(X)
they will keep my name holy;(Y)
they will acknowledge the holiness of the Holy One(Z) of Jacob,
and will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
24 Those who are wayward(AA) in spirit will gain understanding;(AB)
those who complain will accept instruction.”(AC)

Isaiah 59:16-21
New International Version
16 He saw that there was no one,(A)
he was appalled that there was no one to intervene;(B)
so his own arm achieved salvation(C) for him,
and his own righteousness(D) sustained him.
17 He put on righteousness as his breastplate,(E)
and the helmet(F) of salvation on his head;
he put on the garments(G) of vengeance(H)
and wrapped himself in zeal(I) as in a cloak.
18 According to what they have done,
so will he repay(J)
wrath to his enemies
and retribution to his foes;
he will repay the islands(K) their due.
19 From the west,(L) people will fear the name of the Lord,
and from the rising of the sun,(M) they will revere his glory.(N)
For he will come like a pent-up flood
that the breath(O) of the Lord drives along.[a]
20 “The Redeemer(P) will come to Zion,(Q)
to those in Jacob who repent of their sins,”(R)
declares the Lord.
21 “As for me, this is my covenant(S) with them,” says the Lord. “My Spirit,(T) who is on you, will not depart from you,(U) and my words that I have put in your mouth(V) will always be on your lips, on the lips of your children and on the lips of their descendants—from this time on and forever,” says the Lord.

New International Version
Isaiah 64:1-5
New International Version
64 [a]Oh, that you would rend the heavens(A) and come down,(B)
that the mountains(C) would tremble before you!
2 As when fire sets twigs ablaze
and causes water to boil,
come down to make your name(D) known to your enemies
and cause the nations to quake(E) before you!
3 For when you did awesome(F) things that we did not expect,
you came down, and the mountains trembled(G) before you.
4 Since ancient times no one has heard,
no ear has perceived,
no eye has seen any God besides you,(H)
who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.(I)
5 You come to the help of those who gladly do right,(J)
who remember your ways.
But when we continued to sin against them,
you were angry.(K)
How then can we be saved?

Jeremiah 10:1-7
New International Version
God and Idols(A)
10 Hear what the Lord says to you, people of Israel. 2 This is what the Lord says:
“Do not learn the ways of the nations(B)
or be terrified by signs(C) in the heavens,
though the nations are terrified by them.
3 For the practices of the peoples are worthless;
they cut a tree out of the forest,
and a craftsman(D) shapes it with his chisel.(E)
4 They adorn it with silver(F) and gold;
they fasten it with hammer and nails
so it will not totter.(G)
5 Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field,
their idols cannot speak;(H)
they must be carried
because they cannot walk.(I)
Do not fear them;
they can do no harm(J)
nor can they do any good.”(K)

14 “However, the days are coming,”(A) declares the Lord, “when it will no longer be said, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the Israelites up out of Egypt,’(B) 15 but it will be said, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the Israelites up out of the land of the north(C) and out of all the countries where he had banished them.’(D) For I will restore(E) them to the land I gave their ancestors.(F)
16 “But now I will send for many fishermen,” declares the Lord, “and they will catch them.(G) After that I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt(H) them down on every mountain and hill and from the crevices of the rocks.(I) 17 My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden(J) from me, nor is their sin concealed from my eyes.(K) 18 I will repay(L) them double(M) for their wickedness and their sin, because they have defiled my land(N) with the lifeless forms of their vile images(O) and have filled my inheritance with their detestable idols.(P)”(Q)
19 Lord, my strength and my fortress,
my refuge(R) in time of distress,
to you the nations will come(S)
from the ends of the earth and say,
“Our ancestors possessed nothing but false gods,(T)
worthless idols(U) that did them no good.(V)
20 Do people make their own gods?
Yes, but they are not gods!”(W)
21 “Therefore I will teach them—
this time I will teach them
my power and might.
Then they will know
that my name(X) is the Lord.
