Ho! land shadowing with wings, which [art] beyond [the] rivers of Cush;
that sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of papyrus upon [the] face of [the] waters, [saying,] Go, swift messengers, to a nation scattered and peeled, to a people terrible from their beginning and onward, to a nation meted out and trodden down, whose land the rivers have spoiled!
All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see ye when an ensign is lifted up on the mountains; and when a trumpet is blown, hear ye.
For thus Jehovah said unto me, I will take my rest, and I will observe in my dwelling-place like clear heat upon herbs, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
For before the harvest, when the bud is finished, and the blossom becometh a ripening grape, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning-knives, and take away [and] cut down the branches.
They shall be left together unto the birds of the mountains and to the beasts of the earth; and the birds shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.
In that time shall be brought unto Jehovah of hosts a present of a people scattered and peeled, and from a people terrible from their beginning and onward, a nation meted out and trodden under foot, whose land the rivers have spoiled, to the place of the name of Jehovah of hosts, the mount Zion.
