⁷ He will see cavalry, horsemen two by two, men mounted on donkeys, men mounted on camels; let him watch alertly, be very alert indeed!'

⁸ Then the look-out shouted, 'On the watchtower, Lord, I stay all day and at my post I stand all night.

⁹ Now the cavalry is coming, horsemen two by two.' He shouted again and said, 'Babylon has fallen, has fallen, and all the images of her gods he has shattered to the ground!'

¹⁴ Bring water for the thirsty! The inhabitants of Tema went with bread to greet the fugitive.

¹⁵ For these have fled before the sword, the naked sword and the bent bow, the press of battle.
