|
that sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in
vessels of papyrus upon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation
tall and smooth, to a people terrible from their beginning onward, a nation that
meteth out and treadeth down, whose land the rivers divide! |

on the earth, when an ensign is lifted up on the mountains, see ye; and when the

still, and I will behold in my dwelling-place, like clear heat in sunshine, like
a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest. |

In that time shall a present be brought unto
Jehovah of hosts from a people tall and smooth, even from a people terrible from
their beginning onward, a nation that meteth out and treadeth down, whose land
the rivers divide, to the place of the name of Jehovah of hosts, the mount Zion.
