Isaiah 21:7-9
International Standard Version
Isaiah 21:7-9
International Standard Version
7 When he sees chariots, each man[a] with a pair of horses,
riders on donkeys or riders on[b] camels,
let him pay attention,
full attention.”
8 Then the lookout[c] shouted:
“Upon a watchtower I stand, O Lord,
continually by day,
and I am stationed at my post
throughout the night.
9 Look! Here come riders,[d]
each man with a pair of horses!”
They’re shouting out the answer:
“Babylon has fallen, has fallen,
and they have shattered
all the images of her gods[e] on the ground!
