Isaiah 25:3-5
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Isaiah 25:3-5
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
3 Therefore strong peoples will glorify you;
cities of ruthless nations will fear you.
4 For you have been a refuge to the poor,
a refuge to the needy in their distress,
a shelter from the rainstorm and a shade from the heat.
When the blast of the ruthless was like a winter rainstorm,
5 the noise of aliens like heat in a dry place,
you subdued the heat with the shade of clouds;
the song of the ruthless was stilled.
Isaiah 25:3-5
Common English Bible
Isaiah 25:3-5
Common English Bible
3 Therefore, strong people will glorify you;
the towns of tyrant nations will fear you.
4 You have been a refuge for the poor,
a refuge for the needy in distress,
a hiding place from the storm,
a shade from the heat.
When the breath of tyrants is like a winter[a] storm
5 or like heat in the desert,
you subdue the roar of foreigners.
Like heat shaded by a cloud,
the tyrants’ song falls silent.

3 Therefore strong peoples will honor you;(A)
cities of ruthless(B) nations will revere you.
4 You have been a refuge(C) for the poor,(D)
a refuge for the needy(E) in their distress,
a shelter from the storm(F)
and a shade from the heat.
For the breath of the ruthless(G)
is like a storm driving against a wall
5 and like the heat of the desert.
You silence(H) the uproar of foreigners;(I)
as heat is reduced by the shadow of a cloud,
so the song of the ruthless(J) is stilled.
