Isaiah 18

Woe to the land shadowing with wings, which is beyond the riuers of Ethiopia:

GenevaOh, the lande shadowing with winges, which is beyond the riuers of Ethiopia,

ה֥וֹי אֶ֖רֶץ צִלְצַ֣ל כְּנָפָ֑יִם אֲשֶׁ֥ר מֵ/עֵ֖בֶר לְ/נַֽהֲרֵי כֽוּשׁ

That sendeth ambassadours by the sea, euen in vessels of bulrushes vpon the waters, saying; Goe yee swift messengers to a nation scattered and peeled, to a people terrible from their beginning hitherto, a nation meted out and troden downe; whose land the riuers haue spoiled.

GenevaSending ambassadours by the Sea, euen in vessels of reedes vpon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation that is scattered abroade, and spoyled, vnto a terrible people from their beginning euen hitherto: a nation by litle and litle, euen troden vnder foote, whose land the floods haue spoyled.

הַ/שֹּׁלֵ֨חַ בַּ/יָּ֜ם צִירִ֗ים וּ/בִ/כְלֵי גֹמֶא֮ עַל פְּנֵי מַיִם֒ לְכ֣וּ מַלְאָכִ֣ים קַלִּ֗ים אֶל גּוֹי֙ מְמֻשָּׁ֣ךְ וּ/מוֹרָ֔ט אֶל עַ֥ם נוֹרָ֖א מִן ה֣וּא וָ/הָ֑לְאָה גּ֚וֹי קַו קָ֣ו וּ/מְבוּסָ֔ה אֲשֶׁר בָּזְא֥וּ נְהָרִ֖ים אַרְצֽ/וֹ

All yee inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see yee, when hee lifteth vp an ensigne on the mountaines; and when he bloweth a trumpet, heare yee.

GenevaAl ye the inhabitants of ye world and dwellers in the earth, shall see when he setteth vp a signe in the mountaines, and when he bloweth the trumpet, ye shall heare.

כָּל יֹשְׁבֵ֥י תֵבֵ֖ל וְ/שֹׁ֣כְנֵי אָ֑רֶץ כִּ/נְשֹׂא נֵ֤ס הָרִים֙ תִּרְא֔וּ וְ/כִ/תְקֹ֥עַ שׁוֹפָ֖ר תִּשְׁמָֽעוּ

For so the LORD sayd vnto me: I will take my rest, and I will consider in my dwelling place like a cleare heate vpon herbes, and like a cloud of dew in the heate of haruest.

GenevaFor so the Lord saide vnto me, I will rest and beholde in my tabernacle, as the heate drying vp the rayne, and as a cloude of dewe in the heate of haruest.

כִּי֩ כֹ֨ה אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֵלַ֔/י אשקוטה וְ/אַבִּ֣יטָה בִ/מְכוֹנִ֑/י כְּ/חֹ֥ם צַח֙ עֲלֵי א֔וֹר כְּ/עָ֥ב טַ֖ל בְּ/חֹ֥ם קָצִֽיר

For afore the haruest when the bud is perfect, and the sowre grape is ripening in the flowre; hee shall both cut off the sprigges with pruning hookes, and take away and cut downe the branches.

GenevaFor afore the haruest when the floure is finished, and the fruite is riping in the floure, then he shall cut downe the branches with hookes, and shall take away, and cut off the boughes:

כִּֽי לִ/פְנֵ֤י קָצִיר֙ כְּ/תָם פֶּ֔רַח וּ/בֹ֥סֶר גֹּמֵ֖ל יִֽהְיֶ֣ה נִצָּ֑ה וְ/כָרַ֤ת הַ/זַּלְזַלִּים֙ בַּ/מַּזְמֵר֔וֹת וְ/אֶת הַ/נְּטִישׁ֖וֹת הֵסִ֥יר הֵתַֽז

They shalbe left together vnto the foules of the mountaines, and to the beasts of the earth: and the foules shall summer vpon them, and all the beastes of the earth shall winter vpon them.

GenevaThey shall be left together vnto the foules of the mountaines, and to the beastes of the earth: for the foule shall sommer vpon it, and euery beast of the earth shall winter vpon it.

יֵעָזְב֤וּ יַחְדָּו֙ לְ/עֵ֣יט הָרִ֔ים וּֽ/לְ/בֶהֱמַ֖ת הָ/אָ֑רֶץ וְ/קָ֤ץ עָלָי/ו֙ הָ/עַ֔יִט וְ/כָל בֶּהֱמַ֥ת הָ/אָ֖רֶץ עָלָ֥י/ו תֶּחֱרָֽף

¶ In that time shall the present be brought vnto the LORD of hostes, of a people scattered and peeled, and from a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and troden vnder foote, whose land the riuers haue spoiled, to the place of the name of the LORD of hostes, the mount Zion.

GenevaAt that time shall a present be brought vnto the Lord of hostes, (a people that is scattered abroade, and spoyled, and of a terrible people from their beginning hitherto, a nation, by litle and litle euen troden vnder foote, whose land the riuers haue spoyled) to the place of the Name of the Lord of hostes, euen the mount Zion.
