Isaiah 18:4-6

Names of God Bible

I will keep quiet and watch from my dwelling place.
    My presence will be like scorching heat in the sunshine,
        like heavy dew in the heat of the harvest.
⁵ Before the harvest, when blossoms are gone
    and grapes are ripening from blossoms,
        he will cut off the shoots with pruning shears
            and chop off the spreading branches.
⁶ They will be left for the birds of prey on the mountains
    and the wild animals.
        The birds of prey will feed on them in the summer,
            and all the wild animals on earth
                will feed on them in the winter.
