Isaiah 18

18
1Woe to the land shadowing with wings, which [is] beyond the rivers of Ethiopia [Kush]:
2That send ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of bulrushes (papyrus) upon the waters, [saying], Go, you2f swift messengers, to a nation tall and bronzed, to a people terrible from far and wide; a nation powerful and oppressive, whose land the rivers have divided!
3All you2f inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see you2f, when he lifts up an flag (or banner; as of an army) on the mountains; and when he blows a trumpet, hear you2f.
4For so the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) 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.
5For before 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.
6They 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.
7In that time shall the present be brought unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies] of a people tall and bronzed and from a people terrible from their beginning up to this time; a nation meted out and trampled under foot, whose land the rivers have divided, to the place of the name of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies], the mount Tziyon [parched place].
