Jeremiah 51:34-36
Legacy Standard Bible
34 “Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has (A)devoured me and brought me into confusion;
He has set me down like an (B)empty vessel;
He has (C)swallowed me like a sea monster;
He has filled his stomach with my delicacies;
He has rinsed me away.
35 May the (D)violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon,”
The [a]inhabitant of Zion will say;
And, “May my blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldea,”
Jerusalem will say.
36 Therefore thus says Yahweh,
“Behold, I am going to (E)plead your case
And (F)exact full vengeance for you;
And (G)I will dry up her [b]sea
And make her fountain dry.
