This prophecy is against Cush which is south of Egypt in what today is Sudan and Ethiopia. It warns Cush "which sends envoys by sea in papyrus boats" to wait for God's timing. "Go, swift messengers, to a people tall and smooth-skinned... when a trumpet sounds you will hear it... I will remain quiet and look on... he will cut off the shoots with pruning knives... at that time gifts will be brought to the Lord Almighty from a people feared far and wide."
