Dedicate yourselves
"The kings say to their armies, 'Dedicate yourselves". A king from the attacking army is speaking to his men.
Dedicate yourselves to the gods for the battle
"Prepare for war by purifying yourselves and sacrificing to the gods"
Arise, let us attack at noon
"Let us stop thinking and begin to attack Jerusalem at noon"
Woe to us! For
"It is too bad that" or "We are sorry to see that"
the daylight is fading away
"the day is ending" or "it is beginning to get dark"
are falling
"are stretching out" or "are getting longer"
