40I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with male goats.
41How is Sheshach taken! and the praise of the whole earth seized! how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!
42The sea is come up on Babylon; she is covered with the multitude of the waves of it.
43Her cities are become a desolation, a dry land, and a desert, a land in which no man dwells, neither does any son of man pass thereby.
44I will execute judgment on Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up; and the nations shall not flow any more to him: yes, the wall of Babylon shall fall.
45My people, go you out of the midst of her, and save yourselves every man from the fierce anger of Yahweh.
46Don`t let your heart faint, neither fear you for the news that shall be heard in the land; for news shall come one year, and after that in another year [shall come] news, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
