Isaiah 16-18

An Oracle Concerning Moab

Isa 16:13-14 LSB - [13] This is the word which Yahweh spoke earlier concerning Moab. [14] But now Yahweh speaks, saying, "Within three years, as a hired man would count them, the glory of Moab will be dishonored along with all [his] great population, and [his] remnant will be very small [and] not mighty."

An Oracle Concerning Damascus

Isa 17:7-8 LSB - [7] In that day man will have regard for his Maker And his eyes will look to the Holy One of Israel. [8] He will not have regard for the altars, the work of his hands, Nor will he look to that which his fingers have made, Even the Asherim and incense stands.

A Message to Ethiopia

Isa 18:5 LSB - [5] For before the harvest, as soon as the bud blossoms And the flower becomes a ripening grape, Then He will cut off the sprigs with pruning knives And remove [and] cut away the spreading branches.
