2 “Upon a mountain of bare rocks* raise up a signal,*+ YOU men. Lift up the voice to them, wave the hand,+ that they may come into the entrances of the nobles.+

12 Against the walls of Babylon lift up a signal.*+ Make strong the watch.*+ Post the watchmen.* Make ready those lying in ambush.+ For Jehovah both has formed the idea and will certainly do what he has spoken against the inhabitants of Babylon.”+
