3 Therefore a strong people shall glorify You;cities of ruthless nations shall fear You.
4 For You have been a defense to the poor,a defense to the needy in his distress,a refuge from the storm,a shadow from the heat;for the breath of the ruthless onesis as a storm against the wall.
5 You bring down the noise of strangers,as heat in drought;as the heat by the shadow of a cloud,the song of the ruthless ones shall be brought low.
6 In this mountain the Lord of Hosts shall preparefor all people a lavish feast,a feast of aged wines,choice pieces full of marrow, and refined, aged wines.
7 He will destroy in this mountainthe covering which is over all peoples,even the veil that is spread over all nations.
8 He will swallow up death for all time,and the Lord God will wipe away tearsfrom all faces;and the reproach of His people He shall take awayfrom all the earth,for the Lord has spoken it.
9 It shall be said in that day: Look, this is our Godfor whom we have waited that He might save us.This is the Lord for whom we have waited;we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.
