FIRST READING Isaiah 25:6-9 A reading from the Prophet Isaiah
On this mountain , The Lord of hosts will prepare for all peoples a banquet of rich food . On this mountain he will remove the mourning veil covering all peoples , And the shroud enwrapping all nations ; He will destroy Death for ever . The Lord God will wipe away the tears from every cheek ; He will take away his people ’ s shame everywhere on earth , For the Lord has said so . That day , it will be said : See , this is our God in whom we hoped for salvation ; The Lord is the one in whom we hoped . We exult and we rejoice that he has saved us .
The word of the Lord . All : Thanks be to God .
