Verse
KJV
King James Version

Berean Standard Bible
Woe to the land shadowing
with
wings, which
is
beyond
the rivers of Ethiopia:
Woe to the land of
whirring
wings, along
the rivers of Cush,
That
sendeth
ambassadors
by the
sea, even
in vessels of
bulrushes
upon
the waters ,
saying,
Go, ye
swift messengers, to a nation
scattered
and peeled
, to a people terrible
from
their
beginning
hitherto;
a nation meted
out
and
trodden
down
, whose land the
rivers have
spoiled!
which
sends
couriers
by sea, in papyrus
vessels on
the waters .
Go, swift messengers, to a people
tall
and smooth-skinned
, to a people widely
feared,
to
a powerful
nation of
strange
speech
, whose land is
divided
by
rivers .
All ye
inhabitants
of the world ,
and dwellers on
the earth, see
ye,
when he
lifteth
up
an
ensign
on the mountains; and
when he
bloweth
a trumpet
, hear ye
.
All you
people
of the world and dwellers of
the earth, when a
banner
is
raised
on the mountains ,
you
will
see
it
; when a ram’s
horn
sounds
, you
will
hear it
.
For so
the LORD said
unto
me ,
I
will
take
my
rest,
and
I will consider
in
my dwelling place like a
clear
heat upon
herbs
, and
like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
For this
is
what
the LORD has
told
me :
“
I will quietly
look
on
from
My dwelling place ,
like shimmering
heat in
the
sunshine
, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest. ”
For afore
the harvest, when the bud
is perfect,
and the sour
grape
is
ripening
in
the
flower, he shall
both
cut off the sprigs
with pruning hooks,
and take
away
and cut
down
the branches.
For before
the harvest, when the blossom
is gone
and the flower becomes
a
ripening
grape
, He will
cut off the shoots
with a
pruning knife
and remove
and discard
the branches.
They shall
be left together
unto
the fowls
of the
mountains
, and to the beasts of the earth:
and
the fowls
shall
summer
upon
them, and all the beasts
of
the
earth
shall
winter upon
them
.
They will
all
be left to
the mountain
birds
of prey
, and to the beasts of the land.
The birds
will
feed
on
them in
summer
, and all the wild
animals
in
winter.
In
that time shall
the
present
be brought unto
the LORD of hosts of
a people scattered
and peeled
, and
from a people terrible
from their
beginning
hitherto;
a nation meted
out
and
trodden
under
foot
, whose land the
rivers have
spoiled,
to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts ,
the
mount
Zion
.
At
that time gifts
will
be brought to
the LORD of Hosts —
from
a people tall
and smooth-skinned
, from a people widely
feared,
from a powerful
nation of
strange
speech
, whose land is
divided
by
rivers —
to Mount
Zion,
the place of the Name of the LORD of Hosts.
