Isaiah 18:4-6
English Standard Version
4 For thus the Lord said to me:
“I will quietly look (A)from my dwelling
like clear heat in sunshine,
like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.”
5 (B)For before the harvest, when the blossom is over,
and the flower becomes a ripening grape,
he cuts off the shoots with pruning hooks,
and the spreading branches he lops off and clears away.
6 (C)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 on them,
and all the beasts of the earth will winter on them.
Isaiah 18:4-6
New International Version
4 This is what the Lord says to me:
“I will remain quiet(A) and will look on from my dwelling place,(B)
like shimmering heat in the sunshine,(C)
like a cloud of dew(D) in the heat of harvest.”
5 For, before the harvest, when the blossom is gone
and the flower becomes a ripening grape,
he will cut off(E) the shoots with pruning knives,
and cut down and take away the spreading branches.(F)
6 They will all be left to the mountain birds of prey(G)
and to the wild animals;(H)
the birds will feed on them all summer,
the wild animals all winter.
