Isaiah 21:8-10
King James Version
8 And he cried, A lion: My lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I am set in my ward whole nights:
9 And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.
10 O my threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard of the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you.

Isaiah 21:8-10
New International Version
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.
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!’”
10 My people who are crushed on the threshing floor,(G)
I tell you what I have heard
from the Lord Almighty,
from the God of Israel.
