Isaiah 21:6-8

New Catholic Bible

⁶ For this is what the Lord has said to me:
    Go forth and post a lookout;
    let him report what he sees.
⁷ If he should see cavalry,
    horsemen riding in pairs,
men mounted on donkeys,
    men mounted on camels,
instruct him to watch closely
    and to listen diligently.
⁸ Then the lookout shouted,
    “I stand on the watchtower, O Lord,
    all day long,
and I remain stationed at my post
    throughout the night.
