Isaiah 18:4-5

4For thus the Lord has told me, “I will look 1from My 2dwelling place quietly Like dazzling heat in the 34sunshine, Like a cloud of 5dew in the heat of harvest.”5For 6before the harvest, as soon as the bud 7blossoms And the flower becomes a ripening grape, Then He will cut off the sprigs with pruning knives And remove and cut away the spreading branches.
