In context

³On the day that the LORD gives you rest from your pain and torment, and from the hard labor into which you were forced,

⁴You will sing this song of contempt against the king of Babylon: How the oppressor has ceased, and how his fury has ended!

⁵The LORD has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers.

⁶It struck the peoples in anger with unceasing blows; it subdued the nations in rage with relentless persecution.

⁷All the earth is at peace and at rest; they break out in song.
