Isaiah 25:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Judgment on Moab[a]
10 For the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain,
but Moab will be trodden down
as straw is trodden down in the mire.(A)
11 He will spread out his hands in its midst,
as a swimmer spreads out his hands to swim;
His pride will be brought low
despite his strokes.(B)
12 The high-walled fortress he will raze,
bringing it low, leveling it to the ground, to the very dust.(C)
