47 Therefore, behold, the days H3117 come, H935 that I will do judgment H6485 upon the graven images H6456 of Babylon: H894 and her whole land H776 shall be confounded, H954 and all her slain H2491 shall fall H5307 in the midst H8432 of her.
48 Then the heaven H8064 and the earth, H776 and all that is therein, shall sing H7442 for Babylon: H894 for the spoilers H7703 shall come H935 unto her from the north, H6828 saith H5002 the LORD. H3068
