Isaiah 30:15 (KJV)
[15] For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel;
In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in
quietness and in confidence shall be
your strength: and ye would not.

Isaiah 25:1-9 (KJV)
[1] O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee,
I will praise thy name; for thou hast done
wonderful things; thy counsels of old
are faithfulness and truth.
[2] For thou hast made of a city an heap;
of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers
to be no city; it shall never be built.
[3] Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee,
the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee.
[4] For thou hast been a strength to the poor,
a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge
from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the
blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.
[5] Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers,
as the heat in a dry place; even the heat with
the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the
terrible ones shall be brought low.
[6] And in this mountain shall the Lord of hosts
make unto all people a feast of fat things, a
feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full
of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.
[7] And he will destroy in this mountain the face
of the covering cast over all people, and the
vail that is spread over all nations.
[8] He will swallow up death in victory; and
the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces;
and the rebuke of his people shall he take away
from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.
[9] And it shall be said in that day, Lo,
this is our God; we have waited for him,
and he will save us: this is the Lord; we
have waited for him, we will be glad
and rejoice in his salvation.
