Isaiah 21:3-5

New Life Version

³ For this reason my body is full of suffering. Pains have taken hold of me like the pains of a woman giving birth. I am so troubled that I cannot hear. I am so afraid that I cannot see. ⁴ My mind turns. Fear has come over me. The evening I have waited so long for has been turned into a time of shaking with fear. ⁵ They set the tables. They spread out the cloth. They eat and drink. Rise up, captains, oil the battle-coverings!
