Jeremiah 51:34-36

Evangelical Heritage Version

³⁴ Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon has devoured us.^[a]
He has crushed us
and made us like an empty jar.
Like a monster, he has swallowed us,
filled his stomach with our tastiest parts,
and spit out the rest.
³⁵ “May the violence done to us and to our children^[b] be upon Babylon,”
says she who dwells in Zion.
“May our blood be on those who live in Chaldea,” says Jerusalem.

³⁶ Therefore this is what the Lord says:
Watch! I will defend your cause
and take revenge for you.
I will dry up her sea
and make her springs dry.
