21 Go up against the land of double rebellion, against her, and against the inhabitants of Pekod, laying waste and destroying after them, says Jehovah; and do according to all which I commanded thee.
22 The voice of war in the land, and a great breaking.
23 How was the hammer of all the earth cut off, and it will be broken! How was Babel for a desolation among the nations!
24 I laid snares for thee and also thou wert taken, O Babel, and thou knewest not: thou wert found and thou wert also taken, for thou didst contend against Jehovah.
25 Jehovah opened his treasure, and he will bring forth the vessels of his anger: for this the work to the Lord Jehovah of armies in the land of the Chaldeans
26 Come ye against her from the extremity; open her store-houses: cast her up as heaps and exterminate her: there shall be no remnant to her.
27 Lay waste all her bullocks; come down to the slaughter: wo to them! for their day came, the time of their reviewing.
28 The voice of those fleeing and escaping out of the land of Babel, to announce in Zion the vengeance of Jehovah our God, the vengeance of his temple.
29 Cause ye many to be heard against Babel: all ye bending the bow encamp against her round about; there shall be no escaping: requite her according to her work; according to all she did, do to her: for she acted proudly against Jehovah, against the Holy One of Israel.
30 For this her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of her war shall be destroyed in that day, says Jehovah.
31 Behold me against thee, O pride, says the Lord Jehovah of armies: for thy day came, the time I reviewed thee.
32 And pride stumbled and fell, and none lifting up to it: and I kindled a fire in his cities and it shall consume all round about him.
