Isaiah 18:1-2

A Prophecy Against Cush 1Woe to the land of whirring wings Or of locusts along the rivers of Cush, That is, the upper Nile region

2which sends envoys by sea in papyrus boats over the water. Go, swift messengers, to a people tall and smooth-skinned, to a people feared far and wide, an aggressive nation of strange speech, whose land is divided by rivers.
