²⁹ Send for the archers to come together against Babylon, all the bowmen; put up your tents against her on every side; let no one get away: give her the reward of her work; as she has done, so do to her: for she has been uplifted in pride against the Lord, against the Holy One of Israel.

⁴¹ See, a people is coming from the north; a great nation and a number of kings will be put in motion from the inmost parts of the earth.
