Woe
to
the land shadowing
with
wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia :
Ah,
the land of
the
rustling
of
wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia ;
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
!
that sends
ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of papyrus
on
the waters, [
saying ]
, Go, you
swift messengers, to a nation tall
and smooth
, to a people awesome
from their beginning onward,
a nation that
measures
out and treads
down, whose land the rivers divide
!
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
inhabitants of the world, and you
dwellers on the earth, when an ensign is
lifted
up
on the mountains ,
look
; and when the
trumpet is
blown
, listen
.
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 thus
has
Yahweh
said to
me, I will be
still
, and I will see
in my dwelling -
place ,
like clear heat in
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 over
, and the flower becomes
a
ripening
grape
, he will
cut off the sprigs with pruning -
hooks, and the
spreading
branches
will
he
take away [
and ]
cut down.
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 shall be left together to
the ravenous
birds
of the mountains, and to the animals
of the earth ;
and the ravenous
birds
shall summer on
them, and all the animals
of the earth shall winter on
them.
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.
In that time shall a
present be brought to
Yahweh
of Hosts [from]
a people tall
and smooth
, even
from a people awesome
from their beginning onward,
a nation that
measures
out and treads
down
, whose land the rivers divide
, to the place of the name of Yahweh
of Hosts, Mount Zion.
