The daughter{H1323} of Babylon{H894} is like a threshingfloor{H1637}, it is time{H6256} to thresh{H1869}{(H8687)} her: yet a little while{H4592}, and the time{H6256} of her harvest{H7105} shall come{H935}{(H8804)}. 34 Nebuchadrezzar{H5019} the king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} hath devoured{H398}{(H8804)} me, he hath crushed{H2000}{(H8804)} me, he hath made{H3322}{(H8689)} me an empty{H7385} vessel{H3627}, he hath swallowed me up{H1104}{(H8804)} like a dragon{H8577}, he hath filled{H4390}{(H8765)} his belly{H3770} with my delicates{H5730}, he hath cast me out{H1740}{(H8689)}. 35 The violence{H2555} done to me and to my flesh{H7607} be upon Babylon{H894}, shall the inhabitant{H3427}{(H8802)} of Zion{H6726} say{H559}{(H8799)}; and my blood{H1818} upon the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Chaldea{H3778}, shall Jerusalem{H3389} say{H559}{(H8799)}. 36 Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068}; Behold, I will plead{H7378}{(H8801)} thy cause{H7379}, and take vengeance{H5358}{(H8765)} for thee{H5360}; and I will dry up{H2717}{(H8689)} her sea{H3220}, and make her springs{H4726} dry{H3001}{(H8689)}. 37 And Babylon{H894} shall become heaps{H1530}, a dwellingplace{H4583} for dragons{H8577}, an astonishment{H8047}, and an hissing{H8322}, without an inhabitant{H3427}{(H8802)}. 38 They shall roar{H7580}{(H8799)} together{H3162} like lions{H3715}: they shall yell{H5286}{(H8804)} as lions{H738}' whelps{H1484}. 39 In their heat{H2527} I will make{H7896}{(H8799)} their feasts{H4960}, and I will make them drunken{H7937}{(H8689)}, that they may rejoice{H5937}{(H8799)}, and sleep{H3462}{(H8804)} a perpetual{H5769} sleep{H8142}, and not wake{H6974}{(H8686)}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 40 I will bring them down{H3381}{(H8686)} like lambs{H3733} to the slaughter{H2873}{(H8800)}, like rams{H352} with he goats{H6260}. 41 How is Sheshach{H8347} taken{H3920}{(H8738)}! and how is the praise{H8416} of the whole earth{H776} surprised{H8610}{(H8735)}! how is Babylon{H894} become an astonishment{H8047} among the nations{H1471}! 42 The sea{H3220} is come up{H5927}{(H8804)} upon Babylon{H894}: she is covered{H3680}{(H8738)} with the multitude{H1995} of the waves{H1530} thereof. 43 Her cities{H5892} are a desolation{H8047}, a dry{H6723} land{H776}, and a wilderness{H6160}, a land{H776} wherein no man{H376} dwelleth{H3427}{(H8799)}, neither doth any son{H1121} of man{H120} pass{H5674}{(H8799)} thereby{H2004}. 44 And I will punish{H6485}{(H8804)} Bel{H1078} in Babylon{H894}, and I will bring forth{H3318}{(H8689)} out of his mouth{H6310} that which he hath swallowed up{H1105}: and the nations{H1471} shall not flow together{H5102}{(H8799)} any more unto him: yea, the wall{H2346} of Babylon{H894} shall fall{H5307}{(H8804)}. 45 My people{H5971}, go ye out{H3318}{(H8798)} of the midst{H8432} of her, and deliver{H4422}{(H8761)} ye every man{H376} his soul{H5315} from the fierce{H2740} anger{H639} of the LORD{H3068}. 46 And lest your heart{H3824} faint{H7401}{(H8735)}, and ye fear{H3372}{(H8799)} for the rumour{H8052} that shall be heard{H8085}{(H8737)} in the land{H776}; a rumour{H8052} shall both come{H935}{(H8804)} one year{H8141}, and after{H310} that in another year{H8141} shall come a rumour{H8052}, and violence{H2555} in the land{H776}, ruler{H4910}{(H8802)} against ruler{H4910}{(H8802)}.
