Jeremiah 51:33-35
Legacy Standard Bible
33 For thus says Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel:
“The daughter of Babylon is like a (A)threshing floor
At the time [a]it is stamped firm;
Yet in a little while the time of (B)harvest will come for her.”
34 “Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has (C)devoured me and brought me into confusion;
He has set me down like an (D)empty vessel;
He has (E)swallowed me like a sea monster;
He has filled his stomach with my delicacies;
He has rinsed me away.
35 May the (F)violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon,”
The [b]inhabitant of Zion will say;
And, “May my blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldea,”
Jerusalem will say.
