9 “For behold, I am going to (A)arouse and bring up against Babylon
A horde of great nations from the land of the north,
And they will draw up their battle lines against her;
From there she will be taken captive.
Their arrows will be like [a]an expert warrior
Who does not return empty-handed.

Appoint a marshal against her,
Bring up the (E)horses like bristly locusts.
