28 Listen to the people who have escaped from Babylon,
    as they tell in Jerusalem
how the Lord our God has taken vengeance
    against those who destroyed his Temple.

29 “Send out a call for archers to come to Babylon.
    Surround the city so none can escape.

    Her soldiers will all be killed,”
    says the Lord.
