Isaiah 25:3-5
The Voice
3 This is why nations strong and mighty will glorify You;
the cities of ruthless people will fear and respect You.
4 Because You stand up for the poor and weak,
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.
5 You shelter from the relentless heat of the desert.
You quiet the clamor of outsiders, ease them to stillness.
Like a full, dark cloud relieves the heat,
You silence the arrogant song of the violent.
Isaiah 25:3-5
New International Version
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.
