The Fall of Babylon Proclaimed
1 The1 burden against the Wilderness of the Sea.
As awhirlwinds in the South pass through,
So it comes from the desert, from a terrible land.
As awhirlwinds in the South pass through,
So it comes from the desert, from a terrible land.
2 A distressing vision is declared to me;
aThe treacherous dealer deals treacherously,
And the plunderer plunders.
bGo up, O Elam!
Besiege, O Media!
All its sighing I have made to cease.

3 Therefore amy loins are filled with pain;
bPangs have taken hold of me, like the pangs of a woman in labor.
I was1 distressed when I heard it;
I was dismayed when I saw it.

4 My heart wavered, fearfulness frightened me;
aThe night for which I longed He turned into fear for me.

5 aPrepare the table,
Set a watchman in the tower,
Eat and drink.
Arise, you princes,
Anoint the shield!
Set a watchman in the tower,
Eat and drink.
Arise, you princes,
Anoint the shield!
