6 (A)And Yahweh of hosts 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.

Even the veil which is [f]stretched over all nations.

“Behold, (G)this is our God in whom we have (H)hoped that (I)He would save us.

(J)Let us rejoice and be glad in His salvation.”
10 For the hand of Yahweh will rest on this mountain,
And (K)Moab will be trodden down in his place
As straw is trodden down in the water of a manure pile.
35 And when it was already quite late, His disciples came to Him and began saying, “[a]This place is desolate and it is already quite late; 36 send them away so that they may go into the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves [b]something to eat.” 37 But He answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat!” (A)And they *said to Him, “Shall we go and spend two hundred [c](B)denarii on bread and give them something to eat?” 38 And He *said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go look!” And when they found out, they *said, “Five, and two fish.” 39 And He commanded them all to [d]sit down by [e]groups on the green grass. 40 And they [f]sat down in groups of hundreds and of fifties. 41 And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up toward heaven, He (C)blessed the food and broke the loaves. And He kept giving them to the disciples to set before them, and He divided up the two fish among them all. 42 And they all ate and were satisfied, 43 and they picked up twelve full (D)baskets of the broken pieces, and also of the fish. 44 And there were (E)five thousand men who ate the loaves.
