42 The [a](A)sea has come up over Babylon;
She has been engulfed by its roaring waves.
43 Her cities have become an (B)object of horror,
A dry land and a desert,
A land in which (C)no one lives
And through which no [b]one of mankind passes.
44 (D)I will punish Bel in Babylon,
And I will make what he has swallowed (E)come out of his mouth;
And the nations will no longer (F)stream toward him.
Even the (G)wall of Babylon has fallen down!
