Isaiah 18:3-5 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

3. All you who inhabit the world,who dwell on earth,When the signal is raised on the mountain, look!When the trumpet blows, listen!

4. For thus says the Lord to me:I will be quiet, looking on from where I dwell,Like the shimmering heat in sunshine,like a cloud of dew at harvest time.

5. Before the vintage, when the flowering has ended,and the blooms are succeeded by ripening grapes,Then comes the cutting of branches with pruning hooks,and the discarding of the lopped-off shoots.
