一首赞美诗
耶和华啊，你是我的神， 我要尊崇你，称颂你的名。 因为你以信实忠信 行远古所定奇妙的事。O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.
2你使城市变为废墟， 使坚固的城荒凉， 使外邦人的城堡不再为城， 永远不再重建。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所以，强大的民必尊敬你， 残暴之国的城必敬畏你。Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee.
4因为你是贫寒人的保障， 贫穷人急难中的保障， 暴风雨之避难所， 炎热地之阴凉处。 当残暴者盛气凌人的时候， 如暴风直吹墙壁，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如干旱地的热气， 你要制止外邦人的喧嚷， 残暴者的歌要停止， 好像热气因云的阴影而消失。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.
神为万民摆设宴席
6在这山上，万军之耶和华必为万民摆设宴席，有肥甘与美酒，就是满有骨髓的肥甘与精酿的美酒。And in this mountain shall the LORD of hosts make unto all people 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.
7在这山上，他必吞灭那缠裹万民的面纱和那遮盖列国的遮蔽物。And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread over all nations.
8他已吞灭死亡直到永远。主耶和华必擦干各人脸上的眼泪，在全地除去他百姓的羞辱；这是耶和华说的。He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it.
9到那日，人必说：“看哪，这是我们的神，我们向来等候他，他必拯救我们。这是耶和华，我们向来等候他，我们必因他的救恩欢喜快乐。”And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
神要惩罚摩押
10耶和华的手必按住这山，摩押人要被践踏在他底下，好像干草被践踏在粪池☛“粪池”：原文另译“粪池的水”。里。For in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.
11他们要在其中伸展双手，好像游泳的人伸手游泳。他们的手虽灵巧，耶和华却使他们的骄傲降为卑下。And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down their pride together with the spoils of their hands.
12他使你城墙上坚固的碉堡倾倒，夷为平地，化为尘土。And the fortress of the high fort of thy walls shall he bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.
