“The daughter of Babylon is alike a threshing floor
When bit is time to thresh her;
Yet a little while
cAnd the time of her harvest will come.”

34 “Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon
Has adevoured me, he has crushed me;
He has made me an bempty vessel,
He has swallowed me up like a monster;
He has filled his stomach with my delicacies,
He has spit me out.
Has adevoured me, he has crushed me;
He has made me an bempty vessel,
He has swallowed me up like a monster;
He has filled his stomach with my delicacies,
He has spit me out.
35 Let the violence done to me and my flesh be upon Babylon,”
The inhabitant of Zion will say;
“And my blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldea!”
Jerusalem will say.
The inhabitant of Zion will say;
“And my blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldea!”
Jerusalem will say.
36 Therefore thus says the Lord:
“Behold, aI will plead your case and take vengeance for you.
bI will dry up her sea and make her springs dry.
“Behold, aI will plead your case and take vengeance for you.
bI will dry up her sea and make her springs dry.
37 aBabylon shall become a heap,
A dwelling place for jackals,
bAn astonishment and a hissing,
Without an inhabitant.
A dwelling place for jackals,
bAn astonishment and a hissing,
Without an inhabitant.
