Isaias (Isaiah) 25
25
1O Lord, thou art my God. I will exalt thee, and give glory to thy name: for thou hast done wonderful things, thy designs of old, faithful. Amen.
2For thou hast reduced the city to a heap, the strong city to ruin, the house of strangers; to be no city and to be no more built up for ever.
3Therefore shall a strong people praise thee: the city of mighty nations shall fear thee.
4Because thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the whirlwind, a shadow from the heat. For the blast of the mighty is like a whirlwind beating against a wall.
5Thou shalt bring down the tumult of strangers, as heat in thirst: and as with heat under a burning cloud, thou shalt make the branch of the mighty to wither away.
6And the Lord of hosts shall make unto all people, in this mountain, a feast of fat things: a feast of wine, of fat things full of marrow, of wine purified from the lees.
7And he shall destroy in this mountain the face of the bond with which all pie were tied and the web that he over all nations.
8He shall cast death down headlong forever. And the Lord God shall wipe away tears from every face. And the reproach of his people he shall take away from off the whole earth. For the Lord hath spoken it.
9And they shall say in that day: Lo, this is our God: we have waited for him, and he will save us. This is the Lord: we have patiently waited for him, we shall rejoice and be joyful in his salvation.
10For the hand of the Lord shall rest in this mountain: and Moab shall be trodden down under him, as straw is broken in pieces with the wain.
11And he shall stretch forth his hands under him, as he that swimmeth stretcheth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down his glory with the dashing of his hands.
12And the bulwarks of thy high walls shall fall and be brought low, and shall be pulled 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.
