Isaiah 21
21:1 The burden of the desert of the sea.
As whirlwinds in the south pass through; so it cometh from the desert, from a terrible land.
21:2 A grievous vision is declared unto me;
the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth.
Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease.
21:3 Therefore are my loins filled with pain:
pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman that travaileth:
I was bowed down at the hearing of it; I was dismayed at the seeing of it.
21:4 My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me:
the night of my pleasure hath he turned into fear unto me.
21:5 Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink:
arise, ye princes, and anoint the shield.
21:6 For thus hath the LORD said unto me,
Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth.
21:7 And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels;
and he hearkened diligently with much heed:
21:8 And he cried, A lion:
My lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I am set in my ward whole nights:
21:9 And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen.
And he answered and said,
Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.
21:10 O my threshing, and the corn of my floor:
that which I have heard of the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you.
21:11 The burden of Dumah.
He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?
21:12 The watchman said,
The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will enquire, enquire ye: return, come.
21:13 The burden upon Arabia.
In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanim.
21:14 The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty,
they prevented with their bread him that fled.
21:15 For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword,
and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
21:16 For thus hath the LORD said unto me,
Within a year, according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail:
21:17 And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar,
shall be diminished: for the LORD God of Israel hath spoken it.
