Isaiah 25:5 Douay-Rheims

Thou shalt bring down the tumult of strangers, as heat in thirst: and as with heat under a burning cloud, thou shalt make the branch of the mighty to wither away.

Francis Patrick Kenrick

1796–1863 Catholic

As heat in dry weather is lessened by a cloud overhanging, so the noise of strangers is silenced by Divine influence. " As the vine is burnt up, and withered by excessive heat, so Thou wilt cause the clamor and tumult of the strangers, that is, of those who are estranged from Thee, to die away." St. Jerome.
