절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	The Fall of Babylonia This is a message about a desert beside the sea: Enemies from a hostile nation attack like a whirlwind from the Southern Desert.	The burden of the desert of the sea. As whirlwinds in the south pass through; so it cometh from the desert, from a terrible land.
2	What a horrible vision was shown to me— a vision of betrayal and destruction. Tell Elam and Media to surround and attack the Babylonians. The Lord has sworn to end the suffering they caused.	A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease.
3	I'm in terrible pain like a woman giving birth. I'm shocked and hurt so much that I can't hear or see.	Therefore are my loins filled with pain: pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman that travaileth: I was bowed down at the hearing of it; I was dismayed at the seeing of it.
4	My head spins; I'm horrified! Early evening, my favorite time, has become a nightmare.	My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure hath he turned into fear unto me.
5	In Babylon the high officials were having a feast. They were eating and drinking, when someone shouted, “Officers, take your places! Grab your shields.”	Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise, ye princes, and anoint the shield.
6	The Lord said to me, “Send guards to find out what's going on.	For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth.
7	When they see cavalry troops and columns of soldiers on donkeys and camels, tell them to be ready!”	And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed:
8	Then a guard said, “I have stood day and night on this watchtower, Lord.	And he cried, A lion: My lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I am set in my ward whole nights:
9	Now I see column after column of cavalry troops.” At once someone shouted, “Babylon has fallen! Every idol in the city lies broken on the ground.”	And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.
10	Then I said, “My people, you have suffered terribly, but I have a message for you from the Lord All-Powerful, the God of Israel.”	O my threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard of the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you.
11	How Much Longer? This is a message about Dumah: From the country of Seir, someone shouts to me, “Guard, how much longer before daylight?”	The burden of Dumah. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?
12	From my guard post, I answered, “Morning will soon be here, but night will return. If you want to know more, come back later.”	The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will enquire, enquire ye: return, come.
13	This is a message for Arabs who live in the barren desert in the region of Dedan: You must order your caravans	The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanim.
14	to bring water for those who are thirsty. You people of Tema must bring food for the hungry refugees.	The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled.
15	They are worn out and weary from being chased by enemies with swords and arrows.	For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
16	The Lord said to me: A year from now the glory of the people of Kedar will all come to an end, just as a worker's contract ends after a year.	For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail:
17	Only a few of their warriors will be left with bows and arrows. This is a promise that I, the Lord God of Israel, have made.	And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, shall be diminished: for the Lord God of Israel hath spoken it.
