Jeremiah 51:33-35
Evangelical Heritage Version
Jeremiah 51:33-35
Evangelical Heritage Version
33 This is what the Lord of Armies, the God of Israel, says.
The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor when it is trampled.
In just a little while, the time of her harvest will come.
34 Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon has devoured us.[a]
He has crushed us
and made us like an empty jar.
Like a monster, he has swallowed us,
filled his stomach with our tastiest parts,
and spit out the rest.
35 “May the violence done to us and to our children[b] be upon Babylon,”
says she who dwells in Zion.
“May our blood be on those who live in Chaldea,” says Jerusalem.
