“Behold, aI will plead your case and take vengeance for you.
bI will dry up her sea and make her springs dry.
A dwelling place for jackals,
bAn astonishment and a hissing,
Without an inhabitant.
aI will make them drunk,
That they may rejoice,
And sleep a perpetual sleep
And not awake,” says the Lord.
Oh, how bthe praise of the whole earth is seized!
How Babylon has become desolate among the nations!
| << Jeremiah 51:37 | Jeremiah 51:39 >> |
