Isaiah 25:6-12
English Standard Version
6 (A)On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples
a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine,
(B)of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined.
7 And he will swallow up (C)on this mountain
the covering that is cast over all peoples,
(D)the veil that is spread over all nations.
8 (E)He will swallow up death forever;
and (F)the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces,
and (G)the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth,
(H)for the Lord has spoken.
9 It will be said on that day,
“Behold, this is our God; (I)we have waited for him, that he might save us.
This is the Lord; we have waited for him;
(J)let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.”
10 For the hand of the Lord will rest (K)on this mountain,
and (L)Moab shall be trampled down in his place,
as straw is trampled down in a dunghill.[a]
11 (M)And he will spread out his hands in the midst of it
as a swimmer spreads his hands out to swim,
but the Lord (N)will lay low his pompous pride together with the skill[b] of his hands.
12 And the high fortifications of his walls he will bring down,
lay low, and cast to the ground, to the dust.

New American Standard Bible
6 (A)Now the Lord of armies will prepare a [a]lavish banquet for (B)all peoples on this mountain;
A banquet of [b]aged wine, [c]choice pieces with marrow,
And [d]refined, aged wine.
7 And on this mountain He will destroy the [e](C)covering which is over all peoples,
The veil which is [f]stretched over all nations.
8 He will [g](D)swallow up death for all time,
And the Lord [h]God will (E)wipe tears away from all faces,
And He will remove the (F)disgrace of His people from all the earth;
For the Lord has spoken.
9 And it will be said on that day,
“Behold, (G)this is our God for whom we have (H)waited [i]that (I)He might save us.
This is the Lord for whom we have waited;
(J)Let’s rejoice and be glad in His salvation.”
10 For the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain,
And (K)Moab will be trampled down in his place
As straw is trampled down in the water of a manure pile.
11 And he will (L)spread out his hands in the middle of it
As a swimmer spreads out his hands to swim,
But the Lord will (M)lay low his pride together with the trickery of his hands.
12 The (N)unassailable fortifications of your walls He will bring down,
Lay low, and throw to the ground, to the dust.
