* Jehovah , thou art my God : I will exalt thee ; I will celebrate thy name , for thou hast done wonderful things ; counsels of old [which are ] faithfulness [and ] truth . * For thou hast made of the city a heap , of the fortified town a ruin , the palace of strangers to be no city ; it shall never be built up . * Therefore shall the mighty people glorify thee , the city of terrible nations shall fear thee . * For thou hast been a fortress to the poor , a fortress for the needy in his distress , a refuge from the storm , a shadow from the heat : for the blast of the terrible ones [has been ] as the storm [against ] a wall . * Thou hast subdued the tumult of strangers , as the heat in a dry place ; [as ] the heat , by the shadow of a cloud , [so ] the song of the terrible ones is brought low . * And in this mountain will Jehovah of hosts make unto all peoples a feast of fat things , a feast of wines on the lees , of fat things full of marrow , of wines on the lees well refined . * And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the veil which veileth all the peoples , and the covering that is spread over all the nations . * He will swallow up death in victory . And the Lord Jehovah will wipe away tears from off all faces ; and the reproach of his people will he take away from off all the earth : for Jehovah hath spoken . * And it shall be said in that day , Behold , this is our God ; we have waited for him , and he will save us : this is Jehovah , we have waited for him ; we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation . * For in this mountain shall the hand of Jehovah rest , and Moab shall be trodden down under him , as straw is trodden down in the dunghill ; * and he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them , as he that swimmeth spreadeth them forth to swim ; and he shall bring down their pride together with the plots of their hands . * And the fortress of the high defences of thy walls will he bring down , lay low , bring to the ground , into the dust .
