Then the heavens and the earth, and all that is in them, shall shout for Babylon. For the plunderers shall come to her from the north, a statement of Jehovah.
Sing, O heavens, for Jehovah has done it. Shout, O lower parts of the earth; burst forth into praise, O mountains. O forest and every tree in it, sing praise, because Jehovah has redeemed Jacob, and He glorifies Himself in Israel.
Go out of Babylon; flee from the Chaldeans. Declare this with the voice of rejoicing; let this be heard, let it go out to the end of the earth; say, Jehovah has redeemed His servant Jacob.
Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; break out into singing, O mountains. For Jehovah has comforted His people and will have pity on His afflicted ones.
For a nation comes up against her from the north, which shall make her land a horror. Yea, no one shall dwell in it. They shall flee, they shall go up, both man and animal.
For, behold, I am stirring up and making go up a company of great nations from a northern land against Babylon. And they shall array themselves against her. She shall be captured there; their arrows shall be as those of a mighty, skillful man; they shall not return empty.
Because ones devastating has come on her, on Babylon, and is capturing her mighty men, their bows are shattered; for Jehovah the God of recompenses repaying shall repay.
