4  ^v“Prepare war against her;

arise, and let us attack ^wat noon!

Woe to us, for the day declines,

for the shadows of evening lengthen!

27  “Set up a standard on the earth;

blow the trumpet among the nations;

^bprepare the nations for war against her;

summon against her the kingdoms,

Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz;

appoint a marshal against her;

bring up horses like bristling locusts.

9  Proclaim this among the nations:

Consecrate for war;¹

stir up the mighty men.

Let all the men of war draw near;

let them come up.
