7. Babylon was a golden cup in the Lord’s hand.It made the whole world drunk.The nations drank its wine.That is why the nations have gone insane.
8. Babylon will suddenly fall and be shattered.Cry for it.Bring medicine for its pain.Maybe it can be healed.
9. We wanted to heal Babylon, but it couldn’t be healed.Let’s abandon it and go to our own land.God has judged Babylon.Its judgment is complete.
10. The Lord has brought about our victory.Let’s announce in Zion what the Lord our God has done.
11. Sharpen the arrows; fill the quivers.The Lord will stir up the spirit of the kings of the Medesbecause his plan is to destroy Babylon.The Lord will avenge his temple.
