Isaiah 25:4-6
EasyEnglish Bible
4 You Lord have been a safe place for poor people.
When helpless people were in trouble,
you have kept them safe.
You were a place for them to hide from the storm.
You gave them shade from the heat.
Yes, cruel people attack them
like a storm that hits against a wall.
5 and like strong heat in the desert.
You Lord stopped the proud noise of foreign people.
Like the shadow of a cloud that stops the heat of the sun,
you stopped our cruel enemy's songs.
You stopped them as they boasted of their strength.
6 The Lord Almighty will prepare a feast on this mountain.[a]
It will be a feast for all the nations of the world.
It will be a great feast, with plenty of meat and wine.
The best meat and the best wine will be there.

Isaiah 25:4-6
New International Version
4 You have been a refuge(A) for the poor,(B)
a refuge for the needy(C) in their distress,
a shelter from the storm(D)
and a shade from the heat.
For the breath of the ruthless(E)
is like a storm driving against a wall
5 and like the heat of the desert.
You silence(F) the uproar of foreigners;(G)
as heat is reduced by the shadow of a cloud,
so the song of the ruthless(H) is stilled.
