Isaiah 21:4-6

English Standard Version

⁴ My heart staggers; horror has appalled me;
    ^(A)the twilight I longed for
    has been turned for me into trembling.
^5 (B)They prepare the table,
    they spread the rugs,^[a]
    they eat, they drink.
Arise, O princes;
    ^(C)oil the shield!
⁶ For thus the Lord said to me:
“Go, set a watchman;
    let him announce what he sees.
