6. Here on Mount Zion the Lord Almighty will prepare a banquet for all the nations of the world — a banquet of the richest food and the finest wine.
7. Here he will suddenly remove the cloud of sorrow that has been hanging over all the nations.
8. The Sovereign Lord will destroy death for ever! He will wipe away the tears from everyone's eyes and take away the disgrace his people have suffered throughout the world. The Lord himself has spoken!
9. When it happens, everyone will say, “He is our God! We have put our trust in him, and he has rescued us. He is the Lord! We have put our trust in him, and now we are happy and joyful because he has saved us.”
10. The Lord will protect Mount Zion, but the people of Moab will be trampled down, just as straw is trampled in manure.
