Isaiah 21:2-4

2A 1harsh vision has been shown to me; The 2treacherous one still deals treacherously, and the destroyer still destroys. Go up, 3Elam, lay siege, Media; I have made an end of all 4the groaning she has caused.3For this reason my 5loins are full of anguish; Pains have seized me like the pains of a 6woman in labor. I am so bewildered I cannot hear, so terrified I cannot see.4My 7mind reels, 8horror overwhelms me; The twilight I longed for has been 9turned for me into trembling.
