Isaiah 25
1¶ O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee; I will praise thy name for thou hast done wonders, the counsels of old, the truth unchanging.
2That thou hast turned the city into a heap; the defenced city into a ruin: the palace of strangers to not be a city; it shall never be rebuilt.
3Therefore the strong people shall glorify thee; the city of the strong Gentiles shall fear thee.
4For thou hast been strength to the poor, strength to the needy in his distress, refuge from the storm, shadow from the heat, for the force of the violent is as a storm against the wall.
5As the heat in a dry place, thou shalt bring down the pride of the strangers; even as with heat that burns beneath a cloud, thou shalt cause the offshoot of the stout ones to wither.
6¶ And in this mountain the Lord of the hosts shall make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of purified wines, of fat things full of marrow, of purified liquids.
7And he will undo in this mountain the mask of the covering with which all the peoples are covered and the veil that is extended over all the Gentiles.
8He will destroy death forever; and the Lord GOD shall wipe away every tear from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people he shall take away from off all the earth: for the Lord has determined it.
9¶ And it shall be said in that day, Behold, this is our God, whom we have waited for, and he has saved us: this is the Lord, whom we have waited for, we will be glad and rejoice in his saving health.
10For in this mountain the hand of the Lord shall rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.
11And he shall extend his hand in the midst of him as he that swims spreads forth his hand to swim: and he shall bring down his pride with the members of his hands
12and lay siege to the fortress of thy high walls; he shall humble it and bring it down to the ground, even to the dust.

Isaiah 25
25
Praise for Salvation
1Yahweh, you are my God; I will exalt you.
I will praise your name,
for you have done wonderful things,#Hebrew “thing”
plans#Hebrew “plan” of old,#Literally “from far away “ in faithfulness, trustworthiness.
2For you have made#Literally “placed” the city a heap,
the fortified city a ruin,
the palace of foreigners is no longer#Literally “from” a city;
it will never#Literally “to eternity not” be rebuilt.
3Therefore strong peoples will glorify you;
a city of ruthless nations, they will fear you.
4For you have been a refuge to the poor,
a refuge to the needy in his distress,
a shelter from the rainstorm,
a shade from the heat.
For the breath of the ruthless was like a rainstorm against a wall,#The same consonants with different vowels can be translated “winter rainstorm”
5the noise of foreigners like heat in a dry land.
You subdued the heat with the shade of a cloud;
the song of the ruthless was silenced.
6And on this mountain Yahweh of hosts will make for all peoples a rich feast,#Literally “feast of fat”
a feast of aged wines, fat filled with marrow, filtered aged wine.
7And on this mountain he will destroy#Literally “engulf” the face of the shroud,
the shroud over all peoples,
and the woven covering over all nations.
8He will destroy#Literally “engulf” death forever,
and the Lord Yahweh will wipe off the tears from all faces,
and he will remove the disgrace of his people from all the earth,
for Yahweh has spoken.
9And one will say, on that day,
“Look! This is our God! We have waited for him and he saved us!
This is Yahweh; we waited for him!
Let us be glad,
and let us rejoice in his salvation.”
10For the hand of Yahweh will rest on this mountain,
and Moab shall be trampled down under him
as a heap of straw is trampled down#Literally “the trampling down of a heap of straw” in waters of#These words are in the written Hebrew text, but not in the reading tradition (Qere) a dung heap.
11And it#Moab will spread out its hands in the midst of it,
just as the swimmer spreads out to swim,
and its pride will be brought low with the movement#Meaning uncertain of its hands.
12And he will throw down the fortification of the high point of your walls;
he will bring it low;
he will send it#Literally “cause it to touch” to the ground,
to the dust.
