²⁹ Summon the archers to Babylon,
all who string the bow;
camp all round her; let none escape.
Repay her according to her deeds;^(A)
just as she has done, do the same to her,
for she has acted arrogantly against the Lord,
against the Holy One of Israel.^(B)

⁵⁶ for a destroyer is coming against her,
against Babylon.
Her warriors will be captured,
their bows shattered,
for the Lord is a God of retribution;
he will certainly repay.
