Isaiah 21:5-12

JuliaSmith(i) 5 Set in order the table; view the watch-tower; eat, drink: arise ye chiefs, anoint the shield. 6 For thus said Jehovah to me, Go set up a watchman, he shall announce what he shall see. 7 He will see a chariot, a pair of horse men, the rider of an ass, the rider of a camel; and listening, he listened with much attention. 8 And he will call, A lion: on the watch-tower my lord, I stand continually in the day, and upon my watch I stand all the night 9 And behold, here came a chariot, a man, a pair of horsemen. And he will answer and say, She fell, Babel fell; and the carved images of her god he brake in pieces to the earth. 10 O my threshing, and the son of my threshing-floor, what I heard from Jehovah of armies the God of Israel, I announced to you. 11 The burden of Dumah. He called to me from Seir, Watch, what of the night? watch, what of the night? 12 The watch said, I will mark out morning, and also night; if ye will seek, seek ye: turn back, come.
