Their strength has failed; they have become like women. Her dwellings are set on fire; the bars of her gates are broken. 31 One courier runs to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to announce to the king of Babylon that his entire city is captured. 32 The river crossings have been seized, the marshes have been set on fire, and the soldiers are terrified. 33 This is what the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: 'The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor at the time it is trampled; in a little while her harvest time will come.' 34 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has devoured me; he has crushed me. He has made me an empty vessel. He has swallowed me like a monster; he filled his belly with my delicacies. He has rinsed me out. 35 May the violence done to me and my flesh be upon Babylon, says the inhabitant of Zion. May my blood be on the inhabitants of Chaldea, says Jerusalem. 36 Therefore, this is what the Lord says: 'Behold, I will defend your cause and take vengeance for you. I will dry up her sea and make her fountains dry.' 37 Babylon will become a heap of ruins, a haunt for jackals, a horror and an object of scorn, without inhabitant. 38 They will roar together like young lions; they will growl like lion cubs. 39 While they are heated up, I will prepare their feast and make them drunk, so they will revel and then sleep a perpetual sleep, never to wake up, declares the Lord. 40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with male goats. 41 'How Sheshach has been captured, the glory of the whole earth seized! How Babylon has become a horror among the nations! 42 The sea has risen over Babylon; she is covered by its roaring waves. 43 Her cities have become a desolation, a dry and barren land where no one lives, and through which no man passes. 44 'I will punish Bel in Babylon and make him spew out what he has swallowed. The nations will no longer stream to him, and even the wall of Babylon will fall. 45 Come out of her, My people! Save your lives, each of you, from the fierce anger of the Lord. 46 Do not let your heart grow faint, and do not be afraid of the rumors heard in the land. One year a rumor will come, and the next year another rumor—violence in the land and ruler against ruler.
