29 “Call together the archers against Babylon.
All you who bend the bow, encamp against it all around;
Let none of them [a]escape.
(A)Repay her according to her work;
According to all she has done, do to her;
(B)For she has been proud against the Lord,
Against the Holy One of Israel.

56 Because the plunderer comes against her, against Babylon,
And her mighty men are taken.

He will surely repay.

And the violence of the land and the city,
And of all who dwell in it.
