Commentators observe that this verse is an abrupt interruption in the prophecy against Babylon. It functions like a spontaneous song of praise, as if the prophet or the people of Israel suddenly burst into worship upon seeing God's redemptive power in action. This highlights that a proper response to seeing God's justice and salvation is immediate, heartfelt worship.
