56 For the adestroyer is coming against her, against Babylon,
And her mighty men will be captured;
Their bbows are shattered;
For Yahweh is a God of crecompense,
He will fully repay.
57 “I will amake her princes and her wise men drunk,
Her governors, her prefects, and her mighty men,
That they may sleep a bperpetual sleep and not wake up,”
cDeclares the King, whose name is Yahweh of hosts.
58 Thus says Yahweh of hosts,
“The broad awall of Babylon will be completely razed,
And her high bgates will be set on fire;
So the peoples will ctoil for nothing,
And the nations become dweary only for fire.”
