Isaiah 25:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 Thou shalt bring down the noise of the strangers, [a]as the heat in a dry place; he will bring down the song of the mighty, as [b]the heat in the shadow of a cloud.
6 And in this [c]mountain shall the Lord of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, even a feast of fined wines, and of fat things full of marrow, of wines fined and purified.
7 And he will destroy in this mountain [d]the covering that covereth all people, and the veil that is spread upon all nations.
