13:21 What will you say 1 when the Lord 2 appoints as rulers over you those allies
that you, yourself, had actually prepared as such? 3
Then anguish and agony will grip you
like that of a woman giving birth to a baby. 4
22:20 People of Jerusalem, 9 go up to Lebanon and cry out in mourning.
Go to the land of Bashan and cry out loudly.

and both of them will fall down defeated.” 16

Its fortress 21 will suffer disgrace. It will be torn down! 22
49:28 The Lord spoke about Kedar 23 and the kingdoms of Hazor 24 that King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon conquered.

50:2 “Announce 27 the news among the nations! Proclaim it!

Declare the news! Do not hide it! Say:
‘Babylon will be captured.
Bel 29 will be put to shame.
Marduk will be dismayed.
Babylon’s idols will be put to shame.
Her disgusting images 30 will be dismayed. 31
51:33 For the Lord God of Israel who rules over all says,
‘Fair Babylon 32 will be like a threshing floor
which has been trampled flat for harvest.
The time for her to be cut down and harvested
will come very soon.’ 33
