Context of Isaiah 25:6
4You Lord have been a safe place for poor people. When helpless people were in trouble, you have kept them safe. You were a place for them to hide from the storm. You gave them shade from the heat. Yes, cruel people attack them like a storm that hits against a wall. 5and like strong heat in the desert. You Lord stopped the proud noise of foreign people. Like the shadow of a cloud that stops the heat of the sun, you stopped our cruel enemy's songs. You stopped them as they boasted of their strength. The Lord Almighty will prepare a feast on this mountain. It will be a feast for all the nations of the world. It will be a great feast, with plenty of meat and wine. The best meat and the best wine will be there. 7On this mountain the Lord will take away the things that make all people sad. He will remove the cloth that covers the people of all nations. 8The Almighty Lord will destroy death for ever. He will clean away the tears in everyone's eyes. His people will not feel ashamed any more. Nobody in all the world will ever insult them again. That is what the Lord has said.
