Isaiah 18
American Standard Version
1Ah, the landH776 of the rustling of wingsH3671, which is beyond the riversH5104 of Ethiopia; 2that sendeth ambassadors by the seaH3220, even in vesselsH3627 of papyrusH1573 upon the watersH4325, saying, GoH7971, ye swiftH7031 messengersH4397, to a nationH1471 tallH4900 and smooth, to a peopleH5971 terrible from their beginning onwardH1973, a nationH1471 that meteth out and treadeth down, whose landH776 the riversH5104 divideH958! 3All ye inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH8398, and ye dwellersH7931 on the earthH776, when an ensign is liftedH5375 up on the mountainsH2022, seeH7200 ye; and when the trumpetH7782 is blownH8628, hearH8085 ye.
4For thusH3541 hath Jehovah saidH559 unto me, I will be still, and I will behold in my dwelling-place, like clear heatH2527 in sunshine, like a cloudH5645 of dewH2919 in the heatH2527 of harvestH7105. 5For before the harvestH7105, when the blossomH6525 is over, and the flower becometh a ripening grapeH1155, he will cutH3772 off the sprigs with pruning-hooks, and the spreading branches will he take awayH5493 and cutH3772 down. 6They shall be leftH5800 togetherH3162 unto the ravenous birdsH5861 of the mountainsH2022, and to the beasts of the earthH776; and the ravenous birdsH5861 shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earthH776 shall winter upon them. 7In that timeH6256 shall a present be broughtH2986 unto Jehovah of hostsH6635 from a peopleH5971 tallH4900 and smooth, even from a peopleH5971 terrible from their beginning onwardH1973, a nationH1471 that meteth out and treadeth down, whose landH776 the riversH5104 divideH958, to the placeH4725 of the nameH8034 of Jehovah of hostsH6635, the mount ZionH6726.
