CHAP. XXI.
1 The Prophet, bewayling the captiuity of his
people, seeth in a vision, the fall of Babylon
by the Medes and Persians. 11 Edom,
scorning the Prophet, is moued to repentance.
13 The set time of Arabias calamity.
1
The burden of the desert of
the sea. As whirlewinds
in the South passe thorough;
so it commeth
from the desert, from a
terrible land.
2
A note grieuous vision is declared vnto
me; The treacherous dealer dealeth
treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth:
Goe, vp O Elam: besiege, O Media:
all the sighing thereof haue I made to
cease.
3
Therefore are my loynes filled
with paine, pangs haue taken hold vpon
me, as the pangs of a woman that
trauelleth: I was bowed downe at the
hearing of it, I was dismayed at the seeing
of it.
4
noteMy heart panted, fearefulnesse
affrighted me: the night of my pleasure
hath he note turned into feare vnto me.
5
Prepare the table, watch in the
watch-tower, eate, drinke: arise yee
princes, and anoint the shield.
6
For thus hath the Lord sayd vnto
me; Goe, set a watchman, let him declare
what he seeth.
7
And he saw a charet with a couple
of horsemen, a charet of asses, and a
charet of camels; and hee hearkened
diligently with much heede.
8
And note he cryed; A lyon: my Lord,
I stand continually vpon the note watch-tower
in the day time, and I am set in
my ward note whole nights.
9
And behold, heere commeth a
charet of men with a couple of horsemen:
and he answered and sayd; note Babylon
is fallen, is fallen, and all the grauen
images of her Gods he hath broken vnto
the ground.
10
O my threshing and the note corne of
my floore: that which I haue heard of
the Lord of hostes the God of Israel,
haue I declared vnto you.
11
¶ The burden of Dumah. Hee
Against Arabia.
calleth to me out of Seir: Watchman,
what of the night? Watchman, what
of the night?
12
The watchman sayd; The morning
commeth, and also the night: if yee
will enquire, enquire yee: returne,
come.
13
¶ The burden vpon Arabia. In
the forest in Arabia shall yee lodge, O
yee trauelling companies of Dedanim.
14
The inhabitants of the land of
Tema note brought water to him that was
thirsty, they preuented with their bread
him that fled.
15
For they fled from the swords,
note from the drawen sword, and from the
bent bow, and from the grieuousnesse
of warre.
16
For thus hath the Lord sayd vnto
me: Within a yeere, according to the
yeeres of an hireling, and all the glory
of Kedar shall faile.
17
And the residue of the number of
note archers, the mighty men of the children
of Kedar shalbe diminished: for
the Lord God of Israel hath spoken
it.
