| Isaiah 18
|
| | 18:1
Woe to the land shadowing with wings, which is beyond the rivers of
Ethiopia: |
(18:1-7) "Woe to the land shadowing with wings...."
| | 18:2
That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of bulrushes upon the
waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation scattered and peeled,
to a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and
trodden down, whose land the rivers have spoiled! |
| | 18:3
All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see ye, when
he lifteth up an ensign on the mountains; and when he bloweth a trumpet,
hear ye. |
| | 18:4
For so the LORD said unto me, I will take my rest, and I will consider in
my dwelling place like a clear heat upon herbs, and like a cloud of dew in
the heat of harvest. |
| | 18:5
For afore the harvest, when the bud is perfect, and the sour grape is
ripening in the flower, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks,
and take away and cut down the branches. |
| | 18:6
They shall be left together unto the fowls of the mountains, and to the
beasts of the earth: and the fowls shall summer upon them, and all the
beasts of the earth shall winter upon them. |
| | 18:7
In that time shall the present be brought unto the LORD of hosts of a
people scattered and peeled, and from a people terrible from their beginning
hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden under foot, whose land the rivers
have spoiled, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion.
