Chapter 21
| Isai | Noyes | 21:1 | The prophecy concerning the desert of the sea. As storms which rush along through the south, So it cometh from the desert, From the terrible land. | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:2 | A grievous vision was revealed to me; The plunderer plundereth, and the destroyer destroyeth. "Go up, O Elam! Besiege, O Media! All sighing do I make to cease." | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:3 | Therefore are my loins full of pain; Pangs have seized me, as the pangs of a woman in travail; For convulsions I cannot hear; For anguish I cannot see. | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:4 | My heart panteth, Terror hath seized upon me; The evening of my desire is changed into horror. | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:5 | The table is prepared; the watch is set; They eat; they drink; "Arise, ye princes! Anoint the shield!" | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:6 | For thus said the Lord unto me: "Go, set a watchman, Who shall declare what he seeth." | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:7 | And he saw a troop, horsemen in pairs, Riders on asses, and riders on camels, And he watched with the utmost heed. | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:8 | Then he cried like a lion: "My Lord, I stand continually upon the watch-tower in the daytime, And keep my post all the night; | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:9 | And behold, there cometh a troop, Horsemen in pairs." Again also he lifted up his voice, and said: "Fallen, fallen is Babylon, And all the graven images of her gods are cast broken to the ground." | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:10 | O my threshing, and the corn of my floor! What I have heard from Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, That have I declared to you. | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:11 | The prophecy concerning Dumah. A voice came to me from Seir: "Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?" | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:12 | The watchman saith: "Morning cometh, and also night. If ye will inquire, inquire! Return, come!" | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:13 | The prophecy against the Arabians. In the thickets of Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye caravans of Dedan! | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:14 | The inhabitants of the land of Tema Bring water to the thirsty; They come to meet the fugitive with bread. | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:15 | For they flee from swords, From the drawn sword, And from the bent bow, And from the fury of war. | |
| Isai | Noyes | 21:16 | For thus saith the Lord to me: Within one year, according to the years of a hireling, Shall all the glory of Kedar be consumed. | |
