A fortified city a ruin,
A palace of foreigners to be a city no more;
It will never be rebuilt.
A strength to the needy in his distress,
aA refuge from the storm,
A shade from the heat;
For the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.
As heat in a dry place;
As heat in the shadow of a cloud,
The song of the terrible ones will be1 diminished.
bThe Lord of hosts will make for call people
A feast of1 choice pieces,
A feast of1 wines on the lees,
Of fat things full of marrow,
Of well-refined wines on the lees.

Isaiah 25:4
the poor . . . needy—the Jews, exiles from their country (Isaiah 26:6; Isaiah 41:17).
heat—calamity (Isaiah 4:6; Isaiah 32:2).
blast—that is, wrath.
storm—a tempest of rain, a winter flood, rushing against and overthrowing the wall of a house.
