I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness—the affirmation that the armies marching against Babylon are under God's command and commissioned by Him to execute His judgment. The reference to the sanctified and mighty ones as those who rejoice in God's highness suggests that they understand their role in the cosmic drama of divine judgment. This verse establishes that military conquest is understood as instruments of God's will.
