    You comfort and empower them in their distress,
Giving them safe harbor and cool shade when it’s hot;
    You shelter them from their oppressors’ blows
As a strong wall holds back the driving rain.
You shelter from the relentless heat of the desert.
    You quiet the clamor of outsiders, ease them to stillness.

    a feast for everyone on this mystical mountain
With aged wine and good food, the finest wine and choicest meat.
