New International Version

⁸And the lookout^[a]^(A) shouted,

“Day after day, my lord, I stand on the watchtower;
    every night I stay at my post.
⁹Look, here comes a man in a chariot^(B)
    with a team of horses.
And he gives back the answer:
    ‘Babylon^(C) has fallen,^(D) has fallen!
All the images of its gods^(E)
    lie shattered^(F) on the ground!’”
