Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904

18 And it shall be in that. day, that the LORD shall hiss to the fly that is at the end of the rivers of Egypt, and to the bee that is in the land of Assyria.

19 And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the precipitous valleys, and in the crevices of the rocks, and upon all thorn bushes, and upon all pastures.

[*](14. ‘shall call.’ Heb. has here a form resembling pers.)[*](15. ‘as he learneth,’ or, ‘when he knoweth...’; less probably. may know...’)[*](16 Lit. ‘forsaken shall be the land, as to which thou fearest, before the face of her two kings ’ (Kay).)[*](18 ‘rivers’: perhaps ‘Nile-arms’ or ‘canals’: plur. of word used only of the Nile.)[*](19. ‘pastures.’ Some render, ‘bushes.’)

20 In that day shall the LORD shave with the razor that is hired, (which is) beyond the river, the king of Assyria; the head, and. the hair of the feet, and the beard also shall it sweep away.

21 And it shall be in that day, that a man shall nourish a heifer of kine, and two sheep;

22 And it sheu be, from the abundance of milk they give, he shall eat butter; for butter and honey shall everyone eat, that is ’ left in the land.

23 And it shall be, in that day, that every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, it shall be I for briers and thorns.
