“ The sound of a cry comes from Babylon, the sound of great destruction from the land of the Babylonians.

“ A voice! A cry from Babylon! The noise of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!

“ Listen! Hear the cry of Babylon, the sound of great destruction from the land of the Babylonians.

The sound of a cry from Babylon! The sound of terrible destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!

The sound of an outcry from Babylon, And of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!

The sound of a cry comes from Babylon, And great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans,

The sound of a cry from Babylon, and of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!

The sound of a cry from Babylon! The sound of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!

A sound of a cry[ cometh] from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:

Cries of anguish will come from Babylon, the sound of great destruction from the land of the Babylonians.

“ The sound of a cry comes from Babylon, and of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!

The noise of battle is heard in the land. It is the noise of a great city being destroyed!

At the news of Babylon’s capture, the earth will shake. The people’s cries will be heard among the nations.

Cries of sorrow come from Horonaim. The town is being completely destroyed.Moab will be broken. Her little ones will cry out.The people go up the hill to Luhith. They are weeping bitterly as they go. Loud cries are heard on the road down to Horonaim. People cry out because the town is being destroyed.

My heart cries out over Moab. Some who run away get as far as Zoar. Others run all the way to Eglath Shelishiyah. Others go up the hill to Luhith. They are weeping as they go. Still others travel the road to Horonaim. They sing a song of sadness because their town is being destroyed.

The king of Babylon has heard reports about them. His hands can’t help him. He is in great pain. It is like the pain of a woman having a baby.

Cry out! The day of the Lord is near. The Mighty One is coming to destroy the Babylonians.Their hands won’t be able to help them. Everyone’s heart will melt away in fear.The people will be filled with terror. Pain and suffering will grab hold of them. They will groan with pain like a woman having a baby. They’ll look at one another in terror. Their faces will burn with shame.The day of the Lord is coming. It will be a terrible day. The Lord’ s burning anger will blaze out. He will make the land dry and empty. He’ll destroy the sinners in it.

Kill all Babylon’s strongest warriors. Let them die in battle. How terrible it will be for them! Their time to be judged has come. Now they will be punished.

“ At that time people at the Fish Gate in Jerusalem will cry out,” announces the Lord.“ So will those at the New Quarter. The buildings on the hills will come crashing down with a loud noise.

In just one hour your great wealth has been destroyed!’“ Every sea captain and all who travel by ship will stand far away. So will the sailors and all who earn their living from the sea.They will see the smoke rising as Babylon burns. They will ask,‘ Was there ever a city like this great city?’They will throw dust on their heads. They will weep and mourn. They will cry out,“‘ How terrible! How terrible it is for you, great city! All who had ships on the sea became rich because of her wealth! In just one hour she has been destroyed!’
