All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see ye, when he lifteth up an ensign on the mountains; and when he bloweth a trumpet, hear ye.

The verse 3 is found in chapter 18 of Isaiah. The oracle concerning the land of buzzing insects describes a nation sending messengers and observing events from afar. God appears as one who waits for the appropriate moment before acting. The conclusion, when the people bring tribute to Mount Zion, introduces a universal dimension to the nations’ relationship with Yahweh.

Alle, die ihr auf Erden wohnet und im Lande sitzet, werden sehen, wie man das Panier auf den Bergen aufwerfen wird, und hören, wie man die Drommeten blasen wird.
Vosotros, todos los moradores del mundo y habitantes de la tierra, cuando levantará bandera en los montes, la veréis; y oiréis cuando tocará trompeta.
Todos los habitantes del mundo y moradores de la tierra, cuando se alce un estandarte sobre los montes, miren; cuando se toque la trompeta, escuchen.
Vous tous, habitants du monde, habitants de la terre, Voyez la bannière qui se dresse sur les montagnes, Ecoutez la trompette qui sonne!
Voi tutti gli abitatori del mondo, e voi gli abitanti della terra, quando si leverà la bandiera sopra i monti, riguardate; e quando si sonerà la tromba, ascoltate.
Vós, todos os habitantes do mundo, e vós os moradores da terra, quando se arvorar a bandeira nos montes, o vereis; e quando se tocar a trombeta, o ouvireis.
世上所有的居民,住在地上的人哪, 山上大旗豎起時,你們要看, 號角吹響時,你們要聽。
