Isaiah 25:6-12

New Century Version

God’s Banquet for His Servants

⁶The Lord All-Powerful will prepare a feast
    on this mountain for all people.
It will be a feast with all the best food and wine,
    the finest meat and wine.
⁷On this mountain God will destroy
    the veil that covers all nations,
the veil that stretches over all peoples;
⁸he will destroy death forever.
The Lord God will wipe away every tear from every face.
    He will take away the shame of his people from the earth.
The Lord has spoken.

⁹At that time people will say,
    “Our God is doing this!
We have waited for him, and he has come to save us.
    This is the Lord. We waited for him,
so we will rejoice and be happy when he saves us.”
¹⁰The Lord will protect Jerusalem,
    but he will crush our enemy Moab
like straw that is trampled down in the manure.
¹¹They will spread their arms in it
    like a person who is swimming.
But God will bring down their pride,
    and all the clever things they have made will mean nothing.
¹²Moab’s high walls protect them,
    but God will destroy these walls.
He will throw them down to the ground,
    even to the dust.
