Isaiah 21:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 21:4

2 A distressing vision is declared to me;
^aThe treacherous dealer deals treacherously,
And the plunderer plunders.
^bGo up, O Elam!
Besiege, O Media!
All its sighing I have made to cease.

3 Therefore ^amy loins are filled with pain;
^bPangs have taken hold of me, like the pangs of a woman in labor.
I was¹ distressed when I heard it;
I was dismayed when I saw it.

4 My heart wavered, fearfulness frightened me;
^aThe night for which I longed He turned into fear for me.

5 ^aPrepare the table,
Set a watchman in the tower,
Eat and drink.
Arise, you princes,
Anoint the shield!

6 For thus has the Lord said to me:
“Go, set a watchman,
Let him declare what he sees.”

7 And he saw a chariot with a pair of horsemen,
A chariot of donkeys, and a chariot of camels,
And he listened earnestly with great care.
