  Isaiah

18

1 Woe to the land of buzzing wingsbeyond the rivers of Cush, 2 which sends emissaries by sea,in swift craft across the water!They say, Go speedily, you messengers!
Go to a people perpetually on the move,a nation dreaded far and wide,a people continually infringing,whose rivers have annexed their lands.
3 All you who live in the world,you inhabitants of the earth,look to the ensignwhen it is lifted up in the mountains;heed the trumpet when sounded!
4 For thus said Jehovah to me:I will watch in silence over my dwelling placewhen the searing heat overtakes the reapers,aand when the rainclouds appearamid the fever of reaping. 5 For before the harvest,when the time of flowering is pastand the set blossoms are developing into young fruit,they will cut down the fruit-bearing twigs with knivesand remove the new branches by slashing. 6 All shall be left to the birds of preyof the mountainsand to the beasts of the land:the birds of prey will feed on them all summerand the beasts of the land all winter.
7 At that time shall tribute be broughtto Jehovah of Hostsfrom a nation perpetually on the move,from a nation dreaded far and wide,a people continually infringing,whose rivers have annexed their lands,to the place of the name of Jehovah of Hosts:Mount Zion.
