“Surely, as I have planned,^(B) so it will be,
    and as I have purposed, so it will happen.^(C)

²⁷ For the Lord Almighty has purposed,^(A) and who can thwart him?
    His hand^(B) is stretched out, and who can turn it back?^(C)

⁴⁵ Therefore, hear what the Lord has planned against Babylon,
    what he has purposed^(A) against the land of the Babylonians:^(B)
The young of the flock will be dragged away;
    their pasture will be appalled at their fate.
