Verse
KJV
King James Version
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Woe
to
the
land shadowing
with wings, which
is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia:
Ho,
land shadowed
`
with '
wings, That
`
is '
beyond 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 !
That is
sending
by sea ambassadors
, Even with
implements
of reed
on
the face
of
the
waters, --
Go, ye light
messengers, Unto
a nation drawn
out
and peeled, Unto
a people fearful
from its
beginning and
onwards,
A nation meeting
out by
line,
and treading
down, Whose land floods
have spoiled .
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 ye inhabitants of the world, And ye
dwellers of
earth, At
the
lifting
up of
an ensign on hills
ye
look,
And at
the
blowing
of
a trumpet ye hear
.
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
said Jehovah
unto me, `
I rest, and I look
on
My settled
place ,
As
a clear heat on
an
herb.
As
a thick
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
harvest, when the flower
is perfect, And the blossom
is producing
unripe
fruit
, Then
hath
`one'
cut the sprigs with pruning hooks, And the branches he
hath
turned
aside,
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 are
left together to
the ravenous
fowl
of the mountains, And to the beast
of the earth ,
And summered
on
them hath
the
ravenous
fowl
, And every
beast
of the earth wintereth
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 .
At
that time brought is
a
present
to
Jehovah
of Hosts ,
A nation
drawn
out
and peeled .
Even
of
a people fearful
from the
beginning hitherto ,
A nation meting
out by
line,
and treading
down
, Whose land floods
have spoiled, Unto
the place of the name of Jehovah
of Hosts --
mount Zion !'
