1. Doom to the land of winged ships,beyond the rivers of Cush
2. that sends messengers by sea,reed vessels on the water.Go, swift messengers,to a nation tall and clean-shaven,to a people feared near and far,a nation barbaric and oppressive,whose land the rivers divide.
3. All you who inhabit the world,who live on earth,when a signal is raised on the mountains, you will see!When the trumpet blasts, you will hear!
4. The Lord said to me:I will quietly watch from my own place,like the shimmering heat of sunshine,like a cloud’s shade in the harvest heat.
