³ Though an army deploys against me,
my heart is not afraid;
though a war breaks out against me,
still I am confident.^(A)

³ I will camp in a circle around you;
I will besiege you with earth ramps,
and I will set up my siege towers against you.

²⁹ Summon the archers to Babylon,
all who string the bow;
camp all around her; let none escape.
Repay her according to her deeds;^(A)
just as she has done, do the same to her,
for she has acted arrogantly against the Lord,
against the Holy One of Israel.^(B)
