Isaiah 25:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 For thou hast been a strength unto the poor, even a strength to the needy in his trouble, a refuge against the tempest, a shadow against the heat: for the blast [a]of the mighty is like a storm against the wall.
5 Thou shalt bring down the noise of the strangers, [b]as the heat in a dry place; he will bring down the song of the mighty, as [c]the heat in the shadow of a cloud.
6 And in this [d]mountain shall the Lord of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, even a feast of fined wines, and of fat things full of marrow, of wines fined and purified.

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.
