21. Go up against the land of Merathaim, even against it, and against the inhabitants of Pekod: waste and utterly destroy after them,
22. A sound of battle is in the land, and of great destruction.
23. How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how has Babylon become a desolation among the nations!
24. I have laid a snare for you, and you are also taken, O Babylon, and you were not aware: you are found, and also caught, because you have contended against the LORD.
