Isaiah 21:8-10
New American Standard Bible
8 Then [a]the lookout called,
“(A)Lord, I stand continually by day on the watchtower,
And I am stationed every night at my guard post.
9 Now behold, here comes a troop of riders, horsemen in pairs.”
And one said, “(B)Fallen, fallen is Babylon;
And all the (C)images of her gods [b]are shattered on the ground.”
10 My (D)downtrodden people, and my [c]afflicted of the threshing floor!
What I have heard from the Lord of armies,
The God of Israel, I make known to you.

New International Version
8 And the lookout[a](A) shouted,
“Day after day, my lord, I stand on the watchtower;
every night I stay at my post.
9 Look, here comes a man in a chariot(B)
with a team of horses.
And he gives back the answer:
‘Babylon(C) has fallen,(D) has fallen!
All the images of its gods(E)
lie shattered(F) on the ground!’”
10 My people who are crushed on the threshing floor,(G)
I tell you what I have heard
from the Lord Almighty,
from the God of Israel.
