In contextIsaiah 18:7

At that time, tribute shall be brought to the LORD of hosts from a people drawn out and peeled , and from a people awesome from their beginning onward, a nation line by line and trodden down, whose land the rivers have despoiled, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, Mount Zion.
