Jeremiah 51:35-37

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³⁵ May my torn flesh be avenged on Babylon,’
    the inhabitants of Zion shall say.
‘May my blood be avenged on the inhabitants of Chaldea,’
    Jerusalem shall say.
³⁶ Therefore thus says the Lord:
I am going to defend your cause
    and take vengeance for you.
I will dry up her sea
    and make her fountain dry;
³⁷ and Babylon shall become a heap of ruins,
    a den of jackals,
an object of horror and of hissing,
    without inhabitant.
