    and all the inhabitants of Chaldea,
all their wickedness that they have done in Zion
    before your eyes,” declares[a] Yahweh.

    and I will make you as a mountain burned away.

    a stone for a corner,
and a stone for a foundation,
    for you will be an everlasting desolation,”[c] declares[d] Yahweh.
