    says the Lord God ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts].
“·The time has come [L Your day is coming]
    ·for you to be punished [L the time of your punishment].
32 The ·proud [arrogant; C Babylon] will stumble and fall,
    and no one will help her get up.
I will ·start [kindle] a fire in her towns,
    and it will ·burn up [L devour] everything around her.”

    and Judah are ·slaves [oppressed].
·The enemy took them as prisoners [L Their captors have seized them]
    and won’t let them go.
