21:9 Look what’s coming!
A charioteer,
a team of horses.” 1
When questioned, he replies, 2
“Babylon has fallen, fallen!
All the idols of her gods lie shattered on the ground!”
1 tn Or “[with] teams of horses,” or perhaps, “with a pair of horsemen.”
2 tn Heb “and he answered and said” (so KJV, ASV).
3 tn Heb “Have the gods of the nations rescued, each his land, from the hand of the king of Assyria?” The rhetorical question expects the answer, “Of course not!”
