Isaiah 18:3-5
American Standard Version
3 All ye inhabitants of the world, and ye dwellers on the earth, when an ensign is lifted up on the mountains, see ye; and when the trumpet is blown, hear ye.
4 For thus hath Jehovah said unto me, I will be still, and I will behold in my dwelling-place, [a]like clear heat in sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest. 5 For before the harvest, when the blossom is over, and the flower becometh a ripening grape, he will cut off the sprigs with pruning-hooks, and the spreading branches will he take away and cut down.

Isaiah 18:3-5
New International Version
3 All you people of the world,(A)
you who live on the earth,
when a banner(B) is raised on the mountains,
you will see it,
and when a trumpet(C) sounds,
you will hear it.
4 This is what the Lord says to me:
“I will remain quiet(D) and will look on from my dwelling place,(E)
like shimmering heat in the sunshine,(F)
like a cloud of dew(G) in the heat of harvest.”
5 For, before the harvest, when the blossom is gone
and the flower becomes a ripening grape,
he will cut off(H) the shoots with pruning knives,
and cut down and take away the spreading branches.(I)
