Isaiah 21
- 1 The burden of the desert of the sea. As whirlwinds in the south pass through; so it comes from the desert, from a terrible land.
- 2 A grievous vision is declared to me; the treacherous dealer deals treacherously, and the spoiler spoils. Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease.
- 3 Therefore are my loins filled with pain: pangs have taken hold on me, as the pangs of a woman that travails: I was bowed down at the hearing of it; I was dismayed at the seeing of it.
- 4 My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure has he turned into fear to me.
- 5 Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise, you princes, and 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 couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels; and he listened diligently with much heed:
- 8 And he cried, A lion: My lord, I stand continually on the watchtower in the daytime, and I am set in my ward whole nights:
- 9 And, behold, here comes a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he has broken to the ground.
- 10 O my threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard of the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared to you. ¶
- 11 The burden of Dumah. He calls to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?
- 12 The watchman said, The morning comes, and also the night: if you will inquire, inquire you: return, come. ¶
- 13 The burden on Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall you lodge, O you traveling companies of Dedanim.
- 14 The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled.
- 15 For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
- 16 For thus has the LORD said to me, Within a year, according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail:
- 17 And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, shall be diminished: for the LORD God of Israel has spoken it.

American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)
2023-12-27English (en)
American King James Version
Produced by Stone Engelbrite
This is a new translation of the Bible, based on the original King James Version. It is a simple word for word update from the King James English. I have taken care to change nothing doctrinely, but to simply update the spelling and vocabulary. I have not changed the grammar because that could alter it doctrinely.
I am hereby putting the American King James version of the Bible into the public domain on November 8, 1999.
