Jeremiah 51:34-35
New International Version
34 “Nebuchadnezzar(A) king of Babylon has devoured(B) us,(C)
he has thrown us into confusion,
he has made us an empty jar.
Like a serpent he has swallowed us
and filled his stomach with our delicacies,
and then has spewed(D) us out.
35 May the violence(E) done to our flesh[a] be on Babylon,”
say the inhabitants of Zion.
“May our blood be on those who live in Babylonia,”
says Jerusalem.(F)
