Do not conceal it but say, 'Babylon has been captured, Bel has been put to shame, Marduk has been shattered ; Her images have been put to shame, her idols have been shattered.' | 2 "Announce and proclaim among the nations, lift up a banner and proclaim it; keep nothing back, but say, 'Babylon will be captured; Bel will be put to shame, Marduk filled with terror. Her images will be put to shame and her idols filled with terror.' |
