Isaiah Chapter 21
The desert vibes of the sea are wilding. Whirlwinds from the south just roll through; it's coming straight from a savage land.
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.
I caught a heavy vision, no cap; these shady fools are being mad sus, and the haters are hating hard. Elam, go up: it's siege time, Media; I've made all the sighs stop, fr.
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. {grievous: Heb. hard}
My whole vibe is pain: it hits me like a pregnant woman in labor; I was shook hearing it, no joke.
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}.
My heart was racing, fear had me all shook; that night I was vibing turned into pure terror.
My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure hath he turned into fear unto me. {heart...: or, mind wandered} {turned: Heb. put}

So the Lord was like, 'Yo, get a watchman, let him spill the tea on what he’s peeping.'
For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth.
He peeped a chariot with riders, a chariot of donkeys, and a chariot of camels; he was all ears, no cap.
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:
He shouted, 'A lion! My dude, I’m on this watchtower all day, and I’m guarding all night.'
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: {he...: or, cried as a lion} {whole...: or, every night}
And then, peep this, here comes a chariot with riders. He said, 'Babylon is down, like, totally down; all her god statues are smashed.'
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.
Oh my harvest, and the grain from my floor: what I heard from the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, I’m dropping that knowledge on you, periodt.
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. {corn: Heb. son}
The vibes from Dumah. Someone's hitting me up from Seir, 'Watchman, what's the night looking like? Watchman, what’s the night looking like?'
The burden of Dumah. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?
The watchman said, 'Morning's coming, but so is the night: if you wanna know, just ask; come back, let's chat.'
The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will enquire, enquire ye: return, come.
The vibes in Arabia are heavy. In the Arabian forest, you’ll chill, O traveling crews of Dedanim.
The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanim.

They were bouncing from the swords, the drawn sword, the bent bow, and the straight chaos of war.
For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. {from the swords: or, for fear, etc: Heb. from the face, etc}
The Lord told me, 'In a year, like how a hired hand counts, all the glory of Kedar is gonna flop.'
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:
And the leftover archers, the strong ones from Kedar, are gonna shrink: for the Lord God of Israel said it.
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}. {archers: Heb. bows}
