Proclamation Against Babylon

1 The aburden against Babylon which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw. 
2 “Lifta up a banner bon the high mountain,
Raise your voice to them;
cWave your hand, that they may enter the gates of the nobles. 
3 I have commanded My1 sanctified ones;
I have also called aMy mighty ones for My anger—
Those who brejoice in My exaltation.” 
4 The anoise of a multitude in the mountains,
Like that of many people!
A tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together!
The Lord of hosts musters
The army for battle. 
5 They come from a far country,
From the end of heaven—
The aLord and His weapons of indignation,
To destroy the whole bland. 
6 Wail, afor the day of the Lord is at hand!
bIt will come as destruction from the Almighty. 
7 Therefore all hands will be limp,
Every man’s heart will melt,
