Isaiah 21:8-10
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
8 Then the watcher[a] called out:
‘Upon a watch-tower I stand, O Lord,
continually by day,
and at my post I am stationed
throughout the night.
9 Look, there they come, riders,
horsemen in pairs!’
Then he responded,
‘Fallen, fallen is Babylon;
and all the images of her gods
lie shattered on the ground.’
10 O my threshed and winnowed one,
what I have heard from the Lord of hosts,
the God of Israel, I announce to you.

“Day after day, my lord, I stand on the watchtower;
every night I stay at my post.
