For you have been a stronghold for the poor person,
a stronghold for the needy(A) in his distress,
a refuge from storms and a shade from heat.(B)
When the breath of the violent
is like a storm against a wall,
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.

On this mountain,[a](C)
the Lord of Armies will prepare for all the peoples a feast of choice meat,(D)
a feast with aged wine, prime cuts of choice meat,[b] fine vintage wine.
