Es 21 (King James)

¹ The burden of the desert of the sea. As whirlwinds in the south pass through; so it cometh from the desert, from a terrible land.
² A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease.
³ Therefore are my loins filled with pain: pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman that travaileth: I was bowed down at the hearing of it; I was dismayed at the seeing of it.
⁴ My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure hath he turned into fear unto me.
⁵ Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise, ye princes, and anoint the shield.
⁶ For thus hath the LORD said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth.
⁷ And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed:
⁸ And he cried, A lion: My lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I am set in my ward whole nights:
⁹ And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.
¹⁰ O my threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard of the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you.
¹¹ The burden of Dumah. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?
¹² The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will enquire, enquire ye: return, come.
¹³ The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanim.
¹⁴ The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled.
¹⁵ For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
¹⁶ For thus hath the LORD said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail:
¹⁷ And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, shall be diminished: for the LORD God of Israel hath spoken it.

Es 21 (Vulgate)

¹ Onus deserti maris. [Sicut turbines ab africo veniunt, de deserto venit, de terra horribili.
² Visio dura nuntiata est mihi : qui incredulus est infideliter agit ; et qui depopulator est vastat. Ascende, Ælam ; obside, Mede ; omnem gemitum ejus cessare feci.
³ Propterea repleti sunt lumbi mei dolore ; angustia possedit me sicut angustia parturientis ; corrui cum audirem, conturbatus sum cum viderem.
⁴ Emarcuit cor meum ; tenebræ stupefecerunt me : Babylon dilecta mea posita est mihi in miraculum.
⁵ Pone mensam, contemplare in specula comedentes et bibentes : surgite, principes, arripite clypeum.
⁶ Hæc enim dixit mihi Dominus : Vade, et pone speculatorem, et quodcumque viderit annuntiet.
⁷ Et vidit currum duorum equitum, ascensorem asini, et ascensorem cameli ; et contemplatus est diligenter multo intuitu.
⁸ Et clamavit leo : Super speculam Domini ego sum, stans jugiter per diem ; et super custodiam meam ego sum, stans totis noctibus.
⁹ Ecce iste venit ascensor vir bigæ equitum ; et respondit, et dixit : Cecidit, cecidit Babylon, et omnia sculptilia deorum ejus contrita sunt in terram.
¹⁰ Tritura mea et filii areæ meæ, quæ audivi a Domino exercituum, Deo Israël, annuntiavi vobis.]
¹¹ Onus Duma. [Ad me clamat ex Seir : Custos, quid de nocte ? custos, quid de nocte ?
¹² Dixit custos : Venit mane et nox ; si quæritis, quærite ; convertimini, venite.]
¹³ Onus in Arabia. [In saltu ad vesperam dormietis, in semitis Dedanim.
¹⁴ Occurrentes sitienti ferte aquam, qui habitatis terram austri ; cum panibus occurrite fugienti.
¹⁵ A facie enim gladiorum fugerunt, a facie gladii imminentis, a facie arcus extenti, a facie gravis prælii.
¹⁶ Quoniam hæc dicit Dominus ad me : Adhuc in uno anno, quasi in anno mercenarii, et auferetur omnis gloria Cedar.
¹⁷ Et reliquiæ numeri sagittariorum fortium de filiis Cedar imminuentur ; Dominus enim Deus Israël locutus est.]
