(A)For you have been a stronghold to the poor,
    a stronghold to the needy in his distress,
    (B)a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat;
(C)for the breath of the ruthless is like a storm against a wall,
    (D)like heat in a dry place.
You subdue the noise of the foreigners;
    as heat by the shade of a cloud,
    so the song of the ruthless is put down.

(E)On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples
    a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine,
    (F)of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined.
