_ _ Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth — God’s direction to Isaiah to set a watchman to “declare” what he sees. But as in Isaiah 21:10, Isaiah himself is represented as the one who “declared.” Horsley makes him the “watchman,” and translates, “Come, let him who standeth on the watchtower report what he seeth.” |
Isaiah 21:6
Go set — This was now done only in a vision, but it signified what should be done really afterwards. |
Isaiah 21:6

2 Kings 9:17-20 And there stood a watchman on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take an horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, [Is it] peace? ... And the watchman told, saying, He came even unto them, and cometh not again: and the driving [is] like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously.
Jeremiah 51:12-13 Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the LORD hath both devised and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon. ... O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, [and] the measure of thy covetousness.

Ezekiel 33:2-7 Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman: ... So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.
