Isaiah 21:5-12

5They prepareH6186 the tableH7979, they setH6965 the watch, they eatH398, they drinkH8354: riseH6965 upH6965, ye princesH8269, anointH4886 the shieldH4043.

6For thusH3541 hath the LordH136 saidH559 unto meH413, Go, setH5975 a watchmanH6822; letH5046 him declareH5046 whatH834 he seeth:

7and when he seeth a troop, horsemenH6571 in pairsH6776, a troop of asses, a troop of camelsH1581, he shall hearken diligently with muchH7227 heedH7181.

8And he criedH7121 as a lionH738: O LordH136, I standH5975 continuallyH8548 uponH5921 the watchtowerH4707 in the day-time, and am setH5324 in my ward wholeH3605 nightsH3915:

9and, beholdH2009, hereH2009 cometh a troopH376 of menH376, horsemenH6571 in pairsH6776. And he answeredH559 and saidH559, BabylonH894 is fallenH5307, is fallenH5307; and allH3605 the gravenH6456 imagesH6456 of herH3605 godsH430 are brokenH7665 unto the groundH776.

10O thou my threshingH1637, and the corn of my floorH1637: that whichH834 I have heardH8085 from the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, have I declaredH5046 unto youH834.

11The burdenH4853 of DumahH1746. One calleth unto meH413 outH4100 of SeirH8165, WatchmanH8104, whatH4100 of the nightH3915? WatchmanH8104, whatH4100 of the nightH3915?

12The watchmanH8104 saidH559, The morningH1242 cometh, and also the nightH3915: ifH518 ye will inquireH1158, inquireH1158 ye: turnH7725 ye, comeH857.
