1 THE VISION OF THE DESERT. As though a whirlwind should pass through the desert, coming from a desert, even from such a land, 2 so a fearful and a grievous vision was declared to me: he that is treacherous deals treacherously, the transgressor transgresses. The Elamites are upon me, and the ambassadors of the Persians come against me: now will I groan and comfort myself. 3 Therefore are my loins filled with feebleness, and pangs have seized me as a travailing woman: I dealt wrongfully that I might not hear; I hasted that I might not see. 4 My heart wanders, and transgression overwhelms me; my soul is occupied with fear. Isaiah 21:1-4, Brenton Septuagint Translation. Public domain.
