Chapter 25
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.
10: For in this mountain
shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down
for the dunghill.
11: And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that
swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down their pride together with the spoils of
their hands.
12: And the fortress of the high fort of thy walls shall he bring down, lay
low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.
