Isaiah 18:7
Context
7At that time a gift of homage will be brought to the LORD of hosts
         From a people tall and smooth,
         Even from a people feared far and wide,
         A powerful and oppressive nation,
         Whose land the rivers divide—
         To the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, even Mount Zion.
