Isaiah 25:2-4
International Standard Version
Isaiah 25:2-4
International Standard Version
2 For you have made the city a heap of rubble,
the fortified city into a ruin;
the foreigners’ citadel[a] is no longer a city—
it will never be rebuilt!
3 Therefore strong peoples will glorify you;
cities of ruthless nations will revere you.
4 For you have been a stronghold for the poor,
a stronghold for the needy in distress,
a shelter from the storm
and a shade from the heat—
for the blistering attack[b] from the ruthless
is like a rainstorm beating against a wall,
