7 When he sees chariots, teams of horses, riders on donkeys, riders on camels, he must be alert, very alert.| When he sees riders, horsemen in pairs, riders on donkeys, riders on camels, let him listen diligently, very diligently.” When he sees chariots with teams of horses, riders on donkeys or riders on camels, let him be alert, fully alert.”
8 Then the guard cries out: |On the watchtower, O sovereign master, I stand all day long; at my post I am stationed every night. Then he who saw cried out: “Upon a watchtower I stand, O Lord, continually by day, and at my post I am stationed whole nights. And the lookout shouted, “Day after day, my lord, I stand on the watchtower; every night I stay at my post.
9 Look what's coming! A charioteer, a team of horses.| When questioned, he replies, |Babylon has fallen, fallen! All the idols of her gods lie shattered on the ground!| And behold, here come riders, horsemen in pairs!” And he answered, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the carved images of her gods he has shattered to the ground.” Look, here comes a man in a chariot with a team of horses. And he gives back the answer: ‘Babylon has fallen, has fallen! All the images of its gods lie shattered on the ground!’”
