Isaiah 21:5-7

Good News Translation

⁵ In the vision a banquet is ready; rugs are spread for the guests to sit on. They are eating and drinking. Suddenly the command rings out: “Officers! Prepare your shields!”

⁶ Then the Lord said to me, “Go and post a sentry, and tell him to report what he sees. ⁷ If he sees riders coming on horseback, two by two, and riders on donkeys and camels, he is to observe them carefully.”
