| Isaiah 18 Text (WEB)
|
- Ah, the land of the rustling of wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia;
- 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 you inhabitants of the world, and you dwellers on the earth, when a banner is lifted up on the mountains, look! When the trumpet is blown, listen!
- For 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 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 he will cut down and take away the spreading branches.
- They will be left together for the ravenous birds of the mountains, and for the animals of the earth. The ravenous birds will summer on them, and all the animals of the earth will winter on them.
- In that time, a present will be brought to Yahweh of Armies 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 Armies, Mount Zion.

- הוי ארץ צלצל כנפים אשר מעבר לנהרי־כוש׃
- השלח בים צירים ובכלי־גמא על־פני־מים לכו מלאכים קלים אל־גוי ממשך ומורט אל־עם נורא מן־הוא והלאה גוי קו־קו ומבוסה אשר־בזאו נהרים ארצו׃
- כל־ישבי תבל ושכני ארץ כנשא־נס הרים תראו וכתקע שופר תשמעו׃ ס
- כי כה אמר יהוה אלי ואביטה במכוני כחם צח עלי־אור כעב טל בחם קציר׃
- כי־לפני קציר כתם־פרח ובסר גמל יהיה נצה וכרת הזלזלים במזמרות ואת־הנטישות הסיר התז׃
- יעזבו יחדו לעיט הרים ולבהמת הארץ וקץ עליו העיט וכל־בהמת הארץ עליו תחרף׃
- בעת ההיא יובל־שי ליהוה צבאות עם ממשך ומורט ומעם נורא מן־הוא והלאה גוי קו־קו ומבוסה אשר בזאו נהרים ארצו אל־מקום שם־יהוה צבאות הר־ציון׃ ס

- Væ terræ cymbalo alarum, quæ est trans flumina Æthiopiæ,
- qui mittit in mare legatos, et in vasis papyri super aquas. Ite, angeli veloces, ad gentem convulsam et dilaceratam ; ad populum terribilem, post quem non est alius ; ad gentem exspectantem et conculcatam, cujus diripuerunt flumina terram ejus.
- Omnes habitatores orbis, qui moramini in terra, cum elevatum fuerit signum in montibus, videbitis, et clangorem tubæ audietis.
- Quia hæc dicit Dominus ad me : Quiescam et considerabo in loco meo, sicut meridiana lux clara est, et sicut nubes roris in die messis.
- Ante messem enim totus effloruit, et immatura perfectio germinabit ; et præcidentur ramusculi ejus falcibus, et quæ derelicta fuerint abscindentur et excutientur.
- Et relinquentur simul avibus montium et bestiis terræ ; et æstate perpetua erunt super eum volucres, et omnes bestiæ terræ super illum hiemabunt.
- In tempore illo deferetur munus Domino exercituum a populo divulso et dilacerato, a populo terribili, post quem non fuit alius ; a gente exspectante, exspectante et conculcata, cujus diripuerunt flumina terram ejus ; ad locum nominis Domini exercituum, montem Sion.

| Isaiah 18 Text (KJV)
|
- Woe to the land shadowing with 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!
- 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.
- 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 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.
- 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.
- 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.
