²⁹ Call together the archers against Babylon, all them that bend the bow; encamp against her round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do unto her; for she hath been proud against Jehovah, against the Holy One of Israel.

¹ "Come down, and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Chaldeans: for you shall no more be called tender and delicate.

² Take the millstones, and grind meal; remove your veil, strip off the train, uncover the leg, pass through the rivers.

³ Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yes, your shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and will spare no man."
