Isaías 18

La Sainte Bible (Ostervald)

2Qui envoies sur la mer des messagers, dans des navires de jonc, voguant sur les eaux! Allez, émissaires légers, vers la nation robuste et agile, vers le peuple redoutable au près et au loin, vers la nation puissante et qui foule aux pieds, dont le pays est coupé de fleuves.

Reina-Valera 1909

2Que envía mensajeros por la mar, y en navíos de junco sobre las aguas! Andad, ligeros mensajeros, á la gente tirada y repelada, al pueblo asombroso desde su principio y después; gente harta de esperar y hollada, cuya tierra destruyeron los ríos.

King James Version

2That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of bulrushes upon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation scattered and peeled, to a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden down, whose land the rivers have spoiled!

World English Bible

2that sends ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of papyrus on the waters, saying, “Go, you swift messengers, to a nation tall and smooth, to a people awesome from their beginning onward, a nation that measures out and treads down, whose land the rivers divide!”
