12 Raise up the battle flags around the walls of Babylon!
    Reinforce the guard. Station watchmen along the way.
Prepare to make a surprise attack, for the Eternal will see His plan carried through
    against the people of Babylon.
13 You who live by the great river
    with the comforts of your abundant treasure,
The end has come, and you will lose it all.
    Your time has run out.
14 The Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies, has sworn by Himself.

Eternal One: I will cover your land with enemy troops
        the way a swarm of locusts covers a field.
    And they will shout victory over you.
