Revised Version 1895

1AhH1945, the landH776 of the rustling of wingsH3671, whichH834 is beyondH5676 the riversH5104 of EthiopiaH3568: 2that sendeth ambassadorsH4397 by the seaH3220, evenH776 in vesselsH3627 of papyrusH1573 uponH5921 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 outH4480 and treadeth downH7971, whoseH834 landH776 the riversH5104 divideH958! 3AllH3605 ye inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH8398, and ye dwellersH7931 on the earthH776, when an ensign is liftedH5375 upH5375 on the mountainsH2022, seeH7200 ye; and when the trumpetH7782 is blownH8628, hearH8085 ye. 4For thusH3541 hath the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto meH413, I will be stillH8252, and I will beholdH5027 in my dwellingH4349 placeH4349; like clear heatH2527 in sunshineH216, like a cloudH5645 of dewH2919 in the heatH2527 of harvestH7105. 5For afore the harvestH7105, when the blossomH6525 is over, and the flowerH6525 becometh a ripeningH1580 grapeH1155, he shall cutH3772 offH3772 the sprigsH2150 with pruning-hooks, and the spreadingH5189 branchesH5189 shall he takeH5493 awayH5493 and cutH3772 downH3772. 6They shall be leftH5800 togetherH3162 unto the ravenous birdsH5861 of the mountainsH2022, and to the beastsH929 of the earthH776: and the ravenous birdsH5861 shall summer uponH5921 them, and allH3605 the beastsH929 of the earthH776 shall winter uponH5921 them. 7In that time shall a present be broughtH2986 unto the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 of a peopleH5971 tallH4900 and smooth, and from a peopleH5971 terrible from their beginning onwardH1973; a nationH1471 that meteth outH4480 and treadeth downH6256, whoseH834 landH776 the riversH5104 divideH958, to the placeH4725 of the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the mountH2022 ZionH6726.
