35 "May the violence done to me and to my flesh be on Babylon," the inhabitants* of Zion will say; and "My blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldea," Jerusalem will say.
36 ⌊Therefore⌋* thus says Yahweh,
"Look, I am going to contend your case, and I will avenge your vengeance, and I will cause her sea to dry up, and I will cause her fountain to dry up. 37 And Babylon will become as a heap of stones, a lair of jackals, an object of horror, and an object of hissing, ⌊without⌋* inhabitants. 38 They will roar together like the young lions, they will growl like the cubs of lions. 39 At their becoming hot I will set their banquets, and I will make them drunk, so that they will fall into a swoon, and they will sleep ⌊an everlasting sleep⌋,* and they will not wake up," ⌊declares⌋* Yahweh. 40 "I will bring them down like young rams to slaughter, like rams and goats. 41 How Sheshach is captured, and the glory of all the earth is seized! How Babylon has become as an object of horror among the nations!
