1. God showed Isaiah son of Amoz this message about Babylon:
2. Raise a flag on the bare mountain.Call out to the men.Raise your hand to signal themto enter through the gates for important people.
3. I myself have commanded those peoplewhom I have separated as mine.I have called those warriors to carry out my anger.They rejoice and are glad to do my will.
4. Listen to the loud noise in the mountains,the sound of many people.Listen to the noise among the kingdoms,the sound of nations gathering together.The Lord All-Powerful is callinghis army together for battle.
