Isaiah 25:2-5
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 25
2
For You have turned a city into a heap,
A fortified city into a ruin;
A palace of strangers is no longer a city,
It will never be rebuilt.
3
Therefore a strong people will glorify You;
Cities of ruthless nations will revere You.
4
For You have been a stronghold for the helpless,
A stronghold for the poor in his distress,
A refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat;
For the breath of the ruthless
Is like a
rain
storm
against
a wall.
5
Like heat in a dry land, You subdue the uproar of foreigners;
Like
heat by the shadow of a cloud, the song of the ruthless is silenced.
King James Version
Chapter 25
2
For thou hast made of a city an heap; of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built.
3
Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee.
4
For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.
5
Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry place; even the heat with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 25
2
For you have turned the city into a pile of rocks,
a fortified city, into ruins;
the fortress of barbarians is no longer a city;
it will never be rebuilt.
3
Therefore, a strong people will honor you.
The cities of violent nations will fear you.
4
For you have been a stronghold for the poor person,
a stronghold for the needy in his distress,
a refuge from storms and a shade from heat.
When the breath of the violent
is like a storm against a wall,
5
like heat in a dry land,
you will subdue the uproar of barbarians.
As the shade of a cloud cools the heat of the day,
so he will silence the song of the violent.
New Living Translation
Chapter 25
2
You turn mighty cities into heaps of ruins.
Cities with strong walls are turned to rubble.
Beautiful palaces in distant lands disappear
and will never be rebuilt.
3
Therefore, strong nations will declare your glory;
ruthless nations will fear you.
4
But you are a tower of refuge to the poor, O
Lord
,
a tower of refuge to the needy in distress.
You are a refuge from the storm
and a shelter from the heat.
For the oppressive acts of ruthless people
are like a storm beating against a wall,
5
or like the relentless heat of the desert.
But you silence the roar of foreign nations.
As the shade of a cloud cools relentless heat,
so the boastful songs of ruthless people are stilled.
English Standard Version
Chapter 25
2
For you have made the city a heap,
the fortified city a ruin;
the foreigners ' palace is a city no more;
it will never be rebuilt.
3
Therefore strong peoples will glorify you;
cities of ruthless nations will fear you.
4
For you have been a stronghold to the poor,
a stronghold to the needy in his distress,
a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat;
for the breath of the ruthless is like a storm against a wall,
5
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.
New International Version
Chapter 25
2
You have made the city a heap of rubble,
the fortified town a ruin,
the foreigners’ stronghold a city no more;
it will never be rebuilt.
3
Therefore strong peoples will honor you;
cities of ruthless nations will revere you.
4
You have been a refuge for the poor,
a refuge for the needy in their distress,
a shelter from the storm
and a shade from the heat.
For the breath of the ruthless
is like a storm driving against a wall
5
and like the heat of the desert.
You silence the uproar of foreigners;
as heat is reduced by the shadow of a cloud,
so the song of the ruthless is stilled.
New King James Version
Chapter 25
2
For You have made a city a ruin,
A fortified city a ruin,
A palace of foreigners to be a city no more;
It will never be rebuilt.
3
Therefore the strong people will glorify You;
The city of the terrible nations will fear You.
4
For You have been a strength to the poor,
A strength to the needy in his distress,
A refuge from the storm,
A shade from the heat;
For the blast of the terrible ones
is
as a storm
against
the wall.
5
You will reduce the noise of aliens,
As heat in a dry place;
As
heat in the shadow of a cloud,
The song of the terrible ones will be diminished.
