Isaiah 25:8

Having swallowed up death itself victoriously, My Lord, Yahweh, will wipe away, tears from off all faces,—And the reproach of his own people, will he remove from off all the earth, For, Yahweh, hath spoken.

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

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.

In Context

7And he will swallow up in this mountain, The mask of the veil, the veil that is upon all the peoples,—And the web that is woven over all the nations.

9So shall it be said, in that day, Lo! our God, is this! We waited for him, that he might save us,—This, is Yahweh! We waited for him, Let us exult and rejoice in his salvation.
