25 The Lord has opened up his storeroom
    and brought out the weapons of his anger,
because the Lord God ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts] has work to do
    in the land of the ·Babylonians [L Chaldeans].
26 Come against it [C Babylon] from far away.
    Break open her storehouses of grain.
    Pile them up [C dead bodies] like heaps of grain.
·Completely destroy Babylon [L Annihilate it]
    and ·do not leave anyone alive [L let there be no remnant].
27 ·Kill [L Put to the sword] all its bulls [C the young men in Babylon];
    let them go down to the slaughter [C killed like animals].
·How terrible it will be for [Woe to] them, because ·the time has come for their defeat [L their day has come];
    it is time for them to be punished.
