²⁸ There is a ^(A)sound of fugitives and refugees from the land of Babylon,
To declare in Zion the ^(B)vengeance of the Lord our God,
Vengeance for His ^(C)temple.

^11 (A)Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers!
The Lord has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes,
Because His plan is against Babylon to destroy it;
For it is the ^(B)vengeance of the Lord, vengeance for His temple.
