Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, and conceal not: say, Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces.
Forrkynd det blandt Folkene, kundgør det, rejs et Banner, kundgør det, dølg det ikke, sig: Babel er indtaget, Bel gjort til Skamme, Merodak knust, til Skamme er dets Afguder blevet, knust dets Afgudsbilleder.
