Isaiah 25:11-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
11 He 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.(A)
12 The high-walled fortress he will raze,
bringing it low, leveling it to the ground, to the very dust.(B)
Isaiah 25:11-12
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
11 Though they spread out their hands in the midst of it,
as swimmers spread out their hands to swim,
their pride will be laid low despite the struggle[a] of their hands.
12 The high fortifications of his walls will be brought down,
laid low, cast to the ground, even to the dust.
