46 Bel crouches; Nebo cowers.^(A)
Idols depicting them are consigned to beasts and cattle.
The images you carry are loaded,
as a burden for the weary animal.

⁴⁴ I will punish Bel^(A) in Babylon.
I will make him vomit what he swallowed.^(B)
The nations will no longer stream to him;^(C)
even Babylon’s wall will fall.
