That land sends people across the sea.
    They go on the water in boats made of reeds.

Quick messengers, go
    to the people who are tall and smooth-skinned.
    They are feared everywhere.
They are a powerful nation with strange speech.
    They defeat the other nations.
Their land is divided by rivers.

All you people of the world, look!
    Everyone who lives in the world, look!
You will see a banner raised on a mountain.
    You will hear a trumpet sound.
The Lord said to me,
    “I will quietly watch from where I live.
I will be like heat in the sunshine.
    I will be like the dew in the heat of harvest time.”
