*
For behold ,
I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon An assembly of great nations from the north country ,
And they shall array themselves against her ;
From there she shall be captured .
Their arrows shall be like those of an expert warrior ;
None shall return in vain .
*
And Chaldea shall become plunder ;
All who plunder her shall be satisfied ,"
says the LORD .
* "
Because you were glad ,
because you rejoiced ,
You destroyers of My heritage ,
Because you have grown fat like a heifer threshing grain ,
And you bellow like bulls ,
*
Your mother shall be deeply ashamed ;
She who bore you shall be ashamed .
Behold ,
the least of the nations shall be a wilderness ,
A dry land and a desert .
*
Because of the wrath of the LORD She shall not be inhabited ,
But she shall be wholly desolate .
Everyone who goes by Babylon shall be horrified And hiss at all her plagues .
* "
Put yourselves in array against Babylon all around ,
All you who bend the bow ;
Shoot at her ,
spare no arrows ,
For she has sinned against the LORD .
*
Shout against her all around ;
She has given her hand ,
Her foundations have fallen ,
Her walls are thrown down ;
For it is the vengeance of the LORD .
Take vengeance on her .
As she has done ,
so do to her .
*
Cut off the sower from Babylon ,
And him who handles the sickle at harvest time .
For fear of the oppressing sword Everyone shall turn to his own people ,
And everyone shall flee to his own land .
