An Oracle Concerning Cush

1 Ah, land of whirring wings that is beyond the rivers of Cush,* 2 which sends ambassadors by the sea, in vessels of papyrus on the waters! Go, you swift messengers, to a nation tall and smooth, to a people feared near and far, a nation mighty and conquering, whose land the rivers divide. 3 All you inhabitants of the world, you who dwell on the earth, when a signal is raised on the mountains, look! When a trumpet is blown, hear! 4 For thus the Lord said to me: “I will quietly look from my dwelling like clear heat in sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.” 5 For before the harvest, when the blossom is over, and the flower becomes a ripening grape, he cuts off the shoots with pruning hooks, and the spreading branches he lops off and clears away. 6 They shall all of them be left to the birds of prey of the mountains and to the beasts of the earth. And the birds of prey will summer on them, and all the beasts of the earth will winter on them. 7 At that time tribute will be brought to the Lord of hosts from a people tall and smooth, from a people feared near and far, a nation mighty and conquering, whose land the rivers divide, to Mount Zion, the place of the name of the Lord of hosts.

Acerca de Etiopía

1 ¡Ay de la tierra que retumba, Que está allende los ríos de Etiopía! 2 Que envía embajadores por el mar navegando en naves de papiro, que dicen: Corred presto mensajeros, al pueblo de elevada estatura y de brillante piel, A un pueblo temido por cercanos y lejanos, Nación agresiva y atropelladora, Cuya tierra dividen los ríos. 3 Vosotros, habitantes del mundo y moradores de la tierra: Al alzarse la bandera en los montes, mirad; Al soplido del shofar, escuchad, 4 Que así me ha dicho YHVH: Como el calor vibrante ante la luz, Como el vaho de la nube al bochorno de la siega, Desde mi morada Yo contemplaré sereno, 5 Antes de la vendimia, cuando haya acabado la floración, Y se produzca el fruto, y maduren las uvas, Podará con podaderas los pámpanos, Y arrancará las cepas, y las arrojará. 6 Juntos serán abandonados a los buitres del monte y a las fieras de la tierra. Las aves de rapiña veranearán sobre ellos, Y todas las fieras de la tierra invernarán sobre ellos. 7 En aquel tiempo, será traído un presente a YHVH Sebaot por un pueblo de elevada estatura y tez brillante, Gente temida por cercanos y lejanos, Nación agresiva y atropelladora, Cuya tierra dividen los ríos, Al lugar dedicado para el nombre de YHVH Sebaot: El Monte Sión.
