lyrics

Yahweh Explains:

5 Take observation of the nations and gaze, be utterly amazed.
For I’m going to do something in your days
that you would not believe,
even after the word was received. [x2]

6 I am elevating the Babylonians,
those hating, berating phony ones,
who span the whole planet
holding in their hands homes not owned.
7 They are a horrifying and terrifying people.
They wrote that they and the Law were equal,
and promote their rote gloating.
8 Their horse-herds course faster than leopards,
jeopardy disaster, like hungry huskies at dusk, see.
Their cavalry are galloping stars,
Their horsemen salaried from afar.
They glide like eagles, dive to dine on people,
9 all their men intend to creep, reap, (and) kill.
Their horrible hordes pour forward like desert winds,
they hoard hostages like sand.
10 They’re mocking kings,
and rulers they call fools and losers.
They sneer at fortresses,
and engineer ramps to forcibly stamp out camps.
11 They sweep through like snowing gusts and keep going,
disgusting peeps, whose own muscle is their god.
