Isaiah 21:9-11

New Catholic Bible

⁹ Behold, here come the cavalry now,
    horsemen riding in pairs.”
Then the Lord responded:
    Fallen, fallen is Babylon,
and all the images of her gods
    have been smashed to the ground.
¹⁰ O my people,
    you who have been trodden
    upon the threshing floor,
what I have heard from the Lord of hosts,
    from the God of Israel,
    I have proclaimed to you.

Someone is calling to me from Seir,
    “Watchman, when will the night end?
    Watchman, when will it end?”
