5. Prepare the table,watch in the watchtower,eat and drink.Arise, you princes,and oil the shields.
6. For thus the Lord has said to me: “Go, station a watchman;let him declare what he sees.
7. When he sees chariotswith horsemen in pairs,a chariot of donkeys,and a chariot of camels,then let him pay close attention,very close attention.”
8. Then the watchman called: “O Lord, I stand continually on the watchtower in the daytime,and I am stationed at my guard post every night.
9. Look, here comes a chariot of men,horsemen in pairs.”And he answered and said,“Fallen, fallen is Babylon.And all the graven images of her godslie shattered on the ground.”
