Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, devoured us, chewed us up, and consumed us like a hungry man consumes a meal. Like a monster he swallowed us whole, filled his belly with our delicacies and then expelled us. Let the people of Zion say, “May the violence done to our people fall upon Babylon!” Let Jerusalem say, “May the Chaldeans pay for the crime of shedding my blood!” YAHWEH This is what YAHWEH says: “Look, I am taking up your cause to make sure you are avenged. I will dry up her water source and make her rivers run dry. Babylon will be reduced to a pile of ruins, the haunt of jackals, a thing of horror and scorn, a place where no one lives. Like lions, the Babylonians all roar over their prey; they growl like lions’ cubs.
