1
An oracle against Babylon that Isaiah son of Amoz saw:
2
Lift up a banner on a barren mountain. Call out to them. Wave your hand, and they will go through the gates of the nobles.
3
I have commanded My chosen ones; I have also called My warriors, who exult in My triumph, to execute My wrath.
4
Listen, a tumult on the mountains, like that of a mighty people! Listen, an uproar among the kingdoms, like nations being gathered together! The LORD of Hosts is mobilizing an army for war.
5
They are coming from a far land, from the distant horizon-- the LORD and the weapons of His wrath-- to destroy the whole country.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_23 13:16-18
16
Their children will be smashed [to death] before their eyes; their houses will be looted, and their wives raped.
17
Look! I am stirring up the Medes against them, who cannot be bought off with silver and who have no desire for gold.
18
[Their] bows will cut young men to pieces. They will have no compassion on little ones; they will not look with pity on children.

2
A troubling vision is declared to me: "The treacherous one acts treacherously, and the destroyer destroys. Advance, Elam! Lay siege, you Medes! I will put an end to all her groaning."
3
Therefore I am filled with anguish. Pain grips me, like the pain of a woman in labor. I am too perplexed to hear, too dismayed to see.
4
My heart staggers; horror terrifies me. He has turned my last glimmer of hope into sheer terror.
5
Prepare a table, and spread out a carpet! Eat and drink! Rise up, you princes, and oil the shields!
6
For the Lord has said to me, "Go, post a lookout; let him report what he sees.
7
When he sees riders-- pairs of horsemen, riders on donkeys, riders on camels-- pay close attention."
8
Then the lookout reported, "Lord, I stand on the watchtower all day, and I stay at my post all night.
9
Look, riders come-- horsemen in pairs." And he answered, saying, "Babylon has fallen, has fallen. All the idols of her gods have been shattered on the ground."

1
The LORD says this to Cyrus, His anointed, whose right hand I have grasped to subdue nations before him, to unloose the loins of kings, to open the doors before him and the gates will not be shut:
2
"I will go before you and level the uneven places; I will shatter the bronze doors and cut the iron bars in two.
3
I will give you the treasures of darkness and riches from secret places, so that you may know that I, the LORD, the God of Israel call you by your name.

21
Go against the land of Merathaim, and against those living in Pekod. Put them to the sword; completely destroy them-- [this is] the LORD's declaration-- do everything I have commanded you.
22
The sound of war is in the land-- a great destruction.
23
How the hammer of the whole earth is cut down and smashed! What a horror Babylon has become among the nations!
24
Babylon, I laid a trap for you, and you were caught, but you did not even know it. You were found and captured because you fought against the LORD.
25
The LORD opened His armory and brought out His weapons of wrath, because it is a task of the Lord God of Hosts in the land of the Chaldeans.
26
Come against her from the most distant places. Open her granaries; pile her up like mounds of grain and completely destroy her. Leave her no survivors.
27
Put all her young bulls to the sword; let them go down to the slaughter. Woe to them, because their day has come, the time of their punishment.
28
[There is] a voice of fugitives and escapees from the land of Babylon announcing in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance for His temple.
29
Summon the archers to Babylon, all who string the bow; camp all around her; let none escape. Repay her according to her deeds; just as she has done, do the same to her, for she has acted arrogantly against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
30
Therefore, her young men will fall in her public squares; all the warriors will be silenced in that day. [This is] the LORD's declaration.
31
Look, I am against you, you arrogant one-- [this is] the declaration of the Lord God of Hosts-- because your day has come, the time when I will punish you.
32
The arrogant will stumble and fall with no one to pick him up. I will set fire to his cities, and it will consume everything around him."

"This is the writing that was inscribed: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, PARSIN
26
