Isaiah 25
25
Last Days’ Deliverance
1Adonai, You are my God, I will exalt You, I will praise Your Name, for You have done wonderful things, plans of old with steadfast faithfulness.
2For You have made a city into a heap, a fortified city into a ruin, a foreigner’s palace a city no more— never to be rebuilt.
3Therefore a strong people will honor You. Cities of ruthless nations will fear You.
4For You have been a stronghold for the poor, a stronghold for the needy in distress, a refuge from the rainstorm, a shade from the heat. For the breath of the ruthless is like a storm against the wall.
5Like heat in a dry place, You subdue the roar of foreigners. Like heat in the shade of a cloud, the song of tyrants is brought low.
6On this mountain, Adonai-Tzva’ot will prepare a lavish banquet for all peoples— a banquet of aged wine— of rich food, of choice marrow, of aged wine well refined.
7On this mountain He will swallow up the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the veil spread over all nations.
8He will swallow up death forever. my Lord Adonai will wipe away tears from every face. He will remove His people’s reproach from all the earth. For Adonai has spoken.
9It will be said in that day: “Behold, this is our God, We waited for Him—He will save us. This is Adonai—we waited for Him. We will rejoice and be glad in His salvation.”
10For the hand of Adonai will rest on this mountain. Moab will be trampled under Him, as straw is trampled in a manure pile.
11When he spreads his hands in it as a swimmer spreads his hands to swim, his pride will be brought down low together with the trickery of his hands.
12He will level your high-fortified walls, lay them low, and cast them down to the ground, down to dust.

Isaiah 25
25
Praise for God’s Deliverance and the Celebration in Zion#These verses praise God for carrying out his plan to destroy the enemy and to save the poor of his people in Zion (14:32), and they announce the victory banquet to be celebrated in the Lord’s city.
1O Lord, you are my God,
I extol you, I praise your name;
For you have carried out your wonderful plans of old,
faithful and true.#Is 12:1, 4; 22:11; 28:29; 37:26.
2For you have made the city a heap,
the fortified city a ruin,
The castle of the insolent, a city no more,
not ever to be rebuilt.#Is 17:1; Jer 51:37.
3Therefore a strong people will honor you,
ruthless nations will fear you.
4For you have been a refuge to the poor,
a refuge to the needy in their distress;
Shelter from the rain,
shade from the heat.#Is 14:32; 32:2; Na 1:7.
When the blast of the ruthless was like a winter rain,
5the roar of strangers like heat in the desert,
You subdued the heat with the shade of a cloud,
the rain of the tyrants was vanquished.
6On this mountain#This mountain: i.e., Jerusalem’s mountain, Zion. the Lord of hosts
will provide for all peoples
A feast of rich food and choice wines,
juicy, rich food and pure, choice wines.
7On this mountain he will destroy
the veil that veils all peoples,
The web that is woven over all nations.
8He will destroy death forever.
The Lord God will wipe away
the tears from all faces;
The reproach of his people he will remove
from the whole earth; for the Lord has spoken.#Is 60:1, 3; 1 Cor 15:53–55; Rev 7:17; 21:4.
9On that day it will be said:
“Indeed, this is our God; we looked to him, and he saved us!
This is the Lord to whom we looked;
let us rejoice and be glad that he has saved us!”#Is 30:18–19.
Judgment on Moab#Moab: one of Israel’s bitterest enemies.
10For the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain,
but Moab will be trodden down
as straw is trodden down in the mire.#Zep 2:9–10.
11He will spread out his hands in its midst,
as a swimmer spreads out his hands to swim;
His pride will be brought low
despite his strokes.#Is 16:6–7, 14.
12The high-walled fortress he will raze,
bringing it low, leveling it to the ground, to the very dust.#Is 26:5.
