1 God showed Isaiah son of Amoz this message about Babylon:
2 Raise a flag on the bare mountain.Call out to the men.Raise your hand to signal them.Tell them to enter through the gates for important people.
3 I myself have commanded those peoplewhom I have separated as mine.I have called those warriors to carry out my anger.They rejoice and are glad to do my will.
4 Listen to the loud noise in the mountains.It sounds like many people.Listen to the noise among the kingdoms.Nations are gathering together.The Lord of heaven’s armies is callinghis army together for battle.
