Render to her as she also hath rendered to you; and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup wherein she hath mingled, mingle ye double unto her.
Declare to many against Babylon, to all that bend the bow: stand together against her round about and let none escape: pay her according to her work: according to all that she hath done, do ye to her: for she hath lifted up herself against the Lord, against the Holy One of Israel.
Flee ye from the midst of Babylon and let every one save his own life, be not silent upon her iniquity: for it is the time of revenge from the Lord. He will render unto her what she hath deserved.
O Lord, thou knowest, remember me, and visit me, and defend me from them that persecute me: do not defend me in thy patience, know that for thy sake I have suffered reproach.
Because the spoiler is come upon her, that is, upon Babylon, and her valiant men are taken, and their bow is weakened: because the Lord, who is a strong revenger, will surely repay.
