Isaiah 18

1
Ah, land of whirring wings which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia;
2
which sends ambassadors by the Nile, in vessels of papyrus upon the waters! Go, you swift messengers, to a nation, tall and smooth, to a people feared near and far, a nation mighty and conquering, whose land the rivers divide.
3
All you inhabitants of the world, you who dwell on the earth, when a signal is raised on the mountains, look! When a trumpet is blown, hear!
4
For thus the LORD said to me: "I will quietly look from my dwelling like clear heat in sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest."
5
For before the harvest, when the blossom is over, and the flower becomes a ripening grape, he will cut off the shoots with pruning hooks, and the spreading branches he will hew away.
6
They shall all of them be left to the birds of prey of the mountains and to the beasts of the earth. And the birds of prey will summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth will winter upon them.
7
At that time gifts will be brought to the LORD of hosts from a people tall and smooth, from a people feared near and far, a nation mighty and conquering, whose land the rivers divide, to Mount Zion, the place of the name of the LORD of hosts.


Isaiah 19

1
An oracle concerning Egypt. Behold, the LORD is riding on a swift cloud and comes to Egypt; and the idols of Egypt will tremble at his presence, and the heart of the Egyptians will melt within them.
2
And I will stir up Egyptians against Egyptians, and they will fight, every man against his brother and every man against his neighbor, city against city, kingdom against kingdom;
3
and the spirit of the Egyptians within them will be emptied out, and I will confound their plans; and they will consult the idols and the sorcerers, and the mediums and the wizards;
4
and I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a hard master; and a fierce king will rule over them, says the Lord, the LORD of hosts.
5
And the waters of the Nile will be dried up, and the river will be parched and dry;
6
and its canals will become foul, and the branches of Egypt's Nile will diminish and dry up, reeds and rushes will rot away.
7
There will be bare places by the Nile, on the brink of the Nile, and all that is sown by the Nile will dry up, be driven away, and be no more.
8
The fishermen will mourn and lament, all who cast hook in the Nile; and they will languish who spread nets upon the water.
9
The workers in combed flax will be in despair, and the weavers of white cotton.
10
Those who are the pillars of the land will be crushed, and all who work for hire will be grieved.
11
The princes of Zo'an are utterly foolish; the wise counselors of Pharaoh give stupid counsel. How can you say to Pharaoh, "I am a son of the wise, a son of ancient kings"?
12
Where then are your wise men? Let them tell you and make known what the LORD of hosts has purposed against Egypt.
13
The princes of Zo'an have become fools, and the princes of Memphis are deluded; those who are the cornerstones of her tribes have led Egypt astray.
14
The LORD has mingled within her a spirit of confusion; and they have made Egypt stagger in all her doings as a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15
And there will be nothing for Egypt which head or tail, palm branch or reed, may do.
16
In that day the Egyptians will be like women, and tremble with fear before the hand which the LORD of hosts shakes over them.
17
And the land of Judah will become a terror to the Egyptians; every one to whom it is mentioned will fear because of the purpose which the LORD of hosts has purposed against them.
18
In that day there will be five cities in the land of Egypt which speak the language of Canaan and swear allegiance to the LORD of hosts. One of these will be called the City of the Sun.
19
In that day there will be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the LORD at its border.
20
It will be a sign and a witness to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt; when they cry to the LORD because of oppressors he will send them a savior, and will defend and deliver them.
21
And the LORD will make himself known to the Egyptians; and the Egyptians will know the LORD in that day and worship with sacrifice and burnt offering, and they will make vows to the LORD and perform them.
22
And the LORD will smite Egypt, smiting and healing, and they will return to the LORD, and he will heed their supplications and heal them.
23
In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian will come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
24
In that day Israel will be the third with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth,
25
whom the LORD of hosts has blessed, saying, "Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my heritage."


Isaiah 20

1
In the year that the commander in chief, who was sent by Sargon the king of Assyria, came to Ashdod and fought against it and took it, --
2
at that time the LORD had spoken by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, "Go, and loose the sackcloth from your loins and take off your shoes from your feet," and he had done so, walking naked and barefoot--
3
the LORD said, "As my servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot for three years as a sign and a portent against Egypt and Ethiopia,
4
so shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians captives and the Ethiopians exiles, both the young and the old, naked and barefoot, with buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.
5
Then they shall be dismayed and confounded because of Ethiopia their hope and of Egypt their boast.
6
And the inhabitants of this coastland will say in that day, 'Behold, this is what has happened to those in whom we hoped and to whom we fled for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria! And we, how shall we escape?'"


Isaiah 21

1
The oracle concerning the wilderness of the sea. As whirlwinds in the Negeb sweep on, it comes from the desert, from a terrible land.
2
A stern vision is told to me; the plunderer plunders, and the destroyer destroys. Go up, O Elam, lay siege, O Media; all the sighing she has caused I bring to an end.
3
Therefore my loins are filled with anguish; pangs have seized me, like the pangs of a woman in travail; I am bowed down so that I cannot hear, I am dismayed so that I cannot see.
4
My mind reels, horror has appalled me; the twilight I longed for has been turned for me into trembling.
5
They prepare the table, they spread the rugs, they eat, they drink. Arise, O princes, oil the shield!
6
For thus the Lord said to me: "Go, set a watchman, let him announce what he sees.
7
When he sees riders, horsemen in pairs, riders on asses, riders on camels, let him listen diligently, very diligently."
8
Then he who saw cried: "Upon a watchtower I stand, O Lord, continually by day, and at my post I am stationed whole nights.
9
And, behold, here come riders, horsemen in pairs!" And he answered, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the images of her gods he has shattered to the ground."
10
O my threshed and winnowed one, what I have heard from the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, I announce to you.
11
The oracle concerning Dumah. One is calling to me from Se'ir, "Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?"
12
The watchman says: "Morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire; come back again."
13
The oracle concerning Arabia. In the thickets in Arabia you will lodge, O caravans of De'danites.
14
To the thirsty bring water, meet the fugitive with bread, O inhabitants of the land of Tema.
15
For they have fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, from the bent bow, and from the press of battle.
16
For thus the Lord said to me, "Within a year, according to the years of a hireling, all the glory of Kedar will come to an end;
17
and the remainder of the archers of the mighty men of the sons of Kedar will be few; for the LORD, the God of Israel, has spoken."


Isaiah 22

1
The oracle concerning the valley of vision. What do you mean that you have gone up, all of you, to the housetops,
2
you who are full of shoutings, tumultuous city, exultant town? Your slain are not slain with the sword or dead in battle.
3
All your rulers have fled together, without the bow they were captured. All of you who were found were captured, though they had fled far away.
4
Therefore I said: "Look away from me, let me weep bitter tears; do not labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people."
5
For the Lord GOD of hosts has a day of tumult and trampling and confusion in the valley of vision, a battering down of walls and a shouting to the mountains.
6
And Elam bore the quiver with chariots and horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.
7
Your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen took their stand at the gates.
8
He has taken away the covering of Judah. In that day you looked to the weapons of the House of the Forest,
9
and you saw that the breaches of the city of David were many, and you collected the waters of the lower pool,
10
and you counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.
11
You made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you did not look to him who did it, or have regard for him who planned it long ago.
12
In that day the Lord GOD of hosts called to weeping and mourning, to baldness and girding with sackcloth;
13
and behold, joy and gladness, slaying oxen and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine. "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die."
14
The LORD of hosts has revealed himself in my ears: "Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you till you die," says the Lord GOD of hosts.
15
Thus says the Lord GOD of hosts, "Come, go to this steward, to Shebna, who is over the household, and say to him:
16
What have you to do here and whom have you here, that you have hewn here a tomb for yourself, you who hew a tomb on the height, and carve a habitation for yourself in the rock?
17
Behold, the LORD will hurl you away violently, O you strong man. He will seize firm hold on you,
18
and whirl you round and round, and throw you like a ball into a wide land; there you shall die, and there shall be your splendid chariots, you shame of your master's house.
19
I will thrust you from your office, and you will be cast down from your station.
20
In that day I will call my servant Eli'akim the son of Hilki'ah,
21
and I will clothe him with your robe, and will bind your girdle on him, and will commit your authority to his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.
22
And I will place on his shoulder the key of the house of David; he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
23
And I will fasten him like a peg in a sure place, and he will become a throne of honor to his father's house.
24
And they will hang on him the whole weight of his father's house, the offspring and issue, every small vessel, from the cups to all the flagons.
25
In that day, says the LORD of hosts, the peg that was fastened in a sure place will give way; and it will be cut down and fall, and the burden that was upon it will be cut off, for the LORD has spoken."
