³⁶ Let a sword kill its false prophets!
    They will become fools.
Let a sword kill Babylon’s warriors!
    They will be full of terror.
³⁷ Let a sword kill its horses and chariots.
    Let a sword kill all the soldiers hired from other countries!
    They will be like frightened women.
Let there be a sword against Babylon’s treasures!
    They will be taken away.
³⁸ Let there be a sword against its waters!
    They will be dried up.
It is a land of idols.
    Those idols will go crazy with fear.
