Baruch 4:30-35

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³⁰ Take courage, O Jerusalem,
    for the one who named you will comfort you.
³¹ Wretched will be those who mistreated you
    and who rejoiced at your fall.
³² Wretched will be the cities that your children served as slaves;
    wretched will be the city that received your offspring.
³³ For just as she rejoiced at your fall
    and was glad for your ruin,
    so she will be grieved at her own desolation.
³⁴ I will take away her pride in her great population,
    and her insolence will be turned to grief.
³⁵ For fire will come upon her from the Everlasting for many days,
    and for a long time she will be inhabited by demons.
