In this mountain, Yahweh of Armies will make all peoples a feast of choice meat,[a] a feast of choice wines, of choice meat full of marrow, of well refined choice wines. He will destroy in this mountain the surface of the covering that covers all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations. He has swallowed up death forever! The Lord Yahweh will wipe away tears from off all faces. He will take the reproach of his people away from off all the earth, for Yahweh has spoken it.

It shall be said in that day, “Behold, this is our God! We have waited for him, and he will save us! This is Yahweh! We have waited for him. We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation!” 10 For Yahweh’s hand will rest in this mountain.

Moab will be trodden down in his place, even like straw is trodden down in the water of the dunghill. 11 He will spread out his hands in the middle of it, like one who swims spreads out hands to swim, but his pride will be humbled together with the craft of his hands. 12 He has brought the high fortress of your walls down, laid low, and brought to the ground, even to the dust.

  1. 25:6 literally, fat things

(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.
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.
    (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.
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.
