¹⁰ O my people,
    you who have been trodden
    upon the threshing floor,
what I have heard from the Lord of hosts,
    from the God of Israel,
    I have proclaimed to you.

Someone is calling to me from Seir,
    “Watchman, when will the night end?
    Watchman, when will it end?”
¹² The watchman replies,
    “Morning will come, and so will the night.
If you wish to ask, do so;
    come back again.”
