Isaiah 25:6-12
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.

Lexham English Bible
6 And on this mountain Yahweh of hosts will make for all peoples a rich feast,[a]
a feast of aged wines, fat filled with marrow, filtered aged wine.
7 And on this mountain he will destroy[b] the face of the shroud,
the shroud over all peoples,
and the woven covering over all nations.
8 He will destroy[c] 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.
9 And 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.”
10 For 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[d] in waters of[e] a dung heap.
11 And it[f] 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[g] of its hands.
12 And he will throw down the fortification of the high point of your walls;
he will bring it low;
he will send it[h] to the ground,
to the dust.
