29 “SUMMON against Babylon archers, all who are treading the bow.+ Encamp against her all around. May there prove to be no escapees.+ Pay back to her according to her activity.+ According to all that she has done, do to her.+ For it is against Jehovah that she has acted presumptuously, against the Holy One of Israel.+

23 But against the Lord of the heavens* you exalted yourself,+ and they brought before you even the vessels of his house;+ and you yourself and your grandees, your concubines and your secondary wives have been drinking wine from them, and you have praised mere gods* of silver and of gold, copper, iron, wood and stone,+ that are beholding nothing or hearing nothing or knowing nothing;+ but the God* in whose hand your breath* is+ and to whom all your ways belong+ you have not glorified.+
