9For beholdH2009, I am going to 1rouseH5782 and bringH5927 upH5927 againstH5921 BabylonH894 A contingentH6951 of greatH1419 nationsH1471 from the landH776 of the northH6828, And they will drawH6186 upH6186 their battleH6186 linesH6186 against her; From thereH8033 she will be takenH3920 captiveH3920. Their arrowsH2671 will be like 2an expertH7919 warriorH1368 Who does not returnH7725 empty-handedH7387.1034ChaldeaH3778 will becomeH1961 plunderH7998; AllH3605 who plunderH7997 her will haveH7646 enoughH7646,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.

11“BecauseH3588 you areH8055 gladH8055, becauseH3588 you areH5937 jubilantH5937, You who 5pillageH8154 My heritageH5159, BecauseH3588 you skipH6335 aboutH6335 6like a threshingH1758 7heiferH5697 And neighH6670 like 8stallionsH47,12Your 9motherH517 10will beH954 greatlyH3966 ashamedH954, She who gaveH3205 you birthH3205 11will be humiliatedH2659. BeholdH2009, she will be the leastH319 of the nationsH1471, A 12wildernessH4057, a dryH6723 landH6723 and a desertH6160.13BecauseH4480 of the wrathH7110 of the LordH3068 she will 13not be inhabitedH3427, But she will be 14completelyH3605 desolateH8077; EveryoneH3605 who passesH5674 by BabylonH894 15will be horrifiedH8074 And will hissH8319 becauseH5921 of allH3605 her woundsH4347.14DrawH6186 upH6186 your battleH6186 linesH6186 againstH5921 BabylonH894 on everyH5439 sideH5439, AllH3605 of you who 16bendH1869 the bowH7198; ShootH3034 at her, do not spareH2550 your arrowsH2671, For she has 17sinnedH2398 against the LordH3068.15RaiseH7321 your battleH7321 cryH7321 againstH5921 her on everyH5439 sideH5439! She has 18givenH5414 19herselfH3027 upH5414, her towersH806 have fallenH5307, Her 20wallsH2346 have been tornH2040 downH2040. For thisH1931 is the 21vengeanceH5360 of the LordH3068: TakeH5358 vengeanceH5358 on her; 22As she has doneH6213 to others, so doH6213 to her.
