Isaiah 21:4-6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
4 My mind reels,
shuddering assails me;
The twilight I yearned for
he has turned into dread.(A)
5 They set the table,
spread out the rugs;
they eat, they drink.[a](B)
Rise up, O princes,
oil the shield!
6 For thus my Lord said to me:
Go, station a watchman,
let him tell what he sees.
