8 And he cried, A [a]lion: my Lord, I stand continually upon the watch tower in the daytime, and I am set in my watch every night:
9 And behold, this man’s chariot cometh with two horsemen. And [b]he answered and said, (A)Babel is fallen: it is fallen, and all the images of her gods hath he broken unto the ground.
10 O [c]my threshing, and the [d]corn of my floor. That which I have heard of the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, have I showed unto you.

8 And the lookout[a](A) shouted,
“Day after day, my lord, I stand on the watchtower;
every night I stay at my post.
9 Look, here comes a man in a chariot(B)
with a team of horses.
