Yeshayah 25
25
1 Hashem, Thou art Elohai; I will exalt Thee, I will praise Shimecha; for Thou hast done peleh;#25:1 See Isa 9:6 [5] Thy etzot (plans) of old are emunah omen (perfect faithfulness).
2For Thou hast made an Ir a heap; a fortified city, a ruin; the stronghold of the zarim (foreigners) to be rebuilt never more.
3Therefore even the am oz (strong people) shall glorify Thee, the city of the ruthless Goyim shall fear Thee.
4For Thou hast been a ma'oz (refuge) to the poor, a ma'oz to the evyon in his tzoros, a makheseh (shelter, cover) from the zerem (shower, storm, downpour), a tzel (shade) from the chorev (heat), when the ruach of the ruthless ones is like a zerem (shower, storm, downpour) against a wall.
5Thou shalt silence the tumult of zarim, as the chorev (heat) in a dry place; even the chorev by the tzel (shadow) of a cloud; the zemir (battle song) of the ruthless ones shall be brought low.
6And in Har Hazeh#25:6 i.e., Mt Tziyon shall Hashem Tzva'os make unto kol HaAmim a fat mishteh (feast), a mishteh (feast) of finest, aged wines, of finest meats, of the best wines of finest vintage.
7And He will destroy in Har Hazeh the pnei hallot (the face of the covering, the [death] shroud) cast over all people, and the masseikhah (overspreading veil) over Kol HaGoyim.
8He will swallow up HaMavet (death) lanetzach (forever); and Adonoi Hashem will wipe away tears from off kol panim; and the kherpah (shame, disgrace) of His people shall He take away from off kol ha'aretz; for Hashem hath spoken it.
9And it shall be said in Yom HaHu, Hinei, this is Eloheinu; we have waited for Him, and He will save us; this is Hashem; we have waited for Him, we will be glad and have simcha in His Yeshu'ah (Salvation).
10For in Har Hazeh#25:10 i.e., Mt Tziyon shall the Yad Hashem rest, and Moav shall be trodden down under Him, even as straw is trodden down in dung.
11And He shall spread forth His hands in the midst of them, just as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim; and He shall bring down their ga'avah (pride) together with the arvot (cleverness) of their hands.
12And the fortification of thy high chomot (walls) shall He bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the aphar (dust).

Isaiah 25
25
Rejoicing in God’s salvation
1 LORD, you are my God.
I will exalt you; I will praise your name,
for you have done wonderful things,
planned long ago, faithful and sure.
2You have turned the city into rubble,
the fortified town into a ruin,
the fortress of foreigners into a city no more,
never to be rebuilt.
3Therefore, strong people will glorify you;
the towns of tyrant nations will fear you.
4You have been a refuge for the poor,
a refuge for the needy in distress,
a hiding place from the storm,
a shade from the heat.
When the breath of tyrants is like a winter#25.4 Or wall storm
5or like heat in the desert,
you subdue the roar of foreigners.
Like heat shaded by a cloud,
the tyrants’ song falls silent.
6On this mountain,
the LORD of heavenly forces will prepare for all peoples
a rich feast, a feast of choice wines,
of select foods rich in flavor,
of choice wines well refined.
7He will swallow up on this mountain the veil that is veiling all peoples,
the shroud enshrouding all nations.
8He will swallow up death#25.8 Heb Maveth forever.
The LORD God will wipe tears from every face;
he will remove his people’s disgrace from off the whole earth,
for the LORD has spoken.
9They will say on that day,
“Look! This is our God,
for whom we have waited—
and he has saved us!
This is the LORD, for whom we have waited;
let’s be glad and rejoice in his salvation!”
10The LORD’s hand will indeed rest on this mountain.
Moab will be trampled down
as straw is trampled into manure.
11When in it they spread out their hands
as swimmers spread out their hands to swim,
God will lay low their pride, even by the efforts of their hands.
12The fortified towers of their#25.12 Or your walls
will be thrown down, will be leveled,
will be brought down to the earth, to the dust.
