Isaiah 25:10

Arabic Bible ERV 2009

لأنَّ اللهَ سَيَحمِي هَذا الجَبَلَ، أمّا مُوآبُ فَسَتُداسُ تَحتَهُ كَالقَشِّ الَّذِي يُداسُ فِي كَومَةِ رَوثٍ.

What Does This Mean?

This verse from Isaiah says that the hand of the Lord will rest on a mountain, and Moab will be crushed under it, like straw being trampled into a pile of manure. Isaiah is speaking, and the key message is about the power of God and how He will defeat His enemies.

Explained for Children

Imagine you have a big mountain where your friend, the Lord, decides to sit. Then, someone who is not your friend, called Moab, comes along, but instead of being nice, the Lord crushes them like you'd step on straw to make it flat. This shows how strong and powerful your friend is!

Historical Background

Isaiah, the prophet, wrote this around 700 BCE. He was speaking to the Israelites, who were facing threats from surrounding nations like Moab. The imagery of a mountain and the Lord's power reflects the cultural belief in divine intervention and protection.
