11 “Because you rejoice and are glad,
    you who pillage my inheritance,(A)
because you frolic like a heifer(B) threshing grain
    and neigh like stallions,
12 your mother will be greatly ashamed;
    she who gave you birth will be disgraced.(C)
She will be the least of the nations—
    a wilderness, a dry land, a desert.(D)
13 Because of the Lord’s anger she will not be inhabited
    but will be completely desolate.(E)
All who pass Babylon will be appalled;(F)
    they will scoff(G) because of all her wounds.(H)

11 (A)“Though you rejoice, though you exult,
    O plunderers of my heritage,
though you frolic like a heifer in the pasture,
    and neigh like stallions,
12 your mother shall be utterly shamed,
    and she who bore you shall be disgraced.
Behold, she shall be the last of the nations,
    (B)a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
13 (C)Because of the wrath of the Lord she shall not be inhabited
    but shall be an utter desolation;
(D)everyone who passes by Babylon shall be appalled,
    (E)and hiss because of all her wounds.

11 Because ye were glad, because ye rejoiced, O ye destroyers of mine heritage, because ye are grown fat as the heifer at grass, and bellow as bulls;

12 Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.

13 Because of the wrath of the Lord it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.
