KJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

35 H2555 The violence H7607 done to me and to my flesh H894 be upon Babylon H3427 , shall the inhabitant [H8802] H6726 of Zion H559 say [H8799] H1818 ; and my blood H3427 upon the inhabitants [H8802] H3778 of Chaldea H3389 , shall Jerusalem H559 say [H8799] .

36 H559 Therefore thus saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD H7378 ; Behold, I will plead [H8801] H7379 thy cause H5358 , and take vengeance [H8765] H5360 for thee H2717 ; and I will dry up [H8689] H3220 her sea H4726 , and make her springs H3001 dry [H8689] .

37 H894 And Babylon H1530 shall become heaps H4583 , a dwellingplace H8577 for dragons H8047 , an astonishment H8322 , and an hissing H3427 , without an inhabitant [H8802] .

38 H7580 They shall roar [H8799] H3162 together H3715 like lions H5286 : they shall yell [H8804] H738 as lions H1484 ' whelps.

39 H2527 In their heat H7896 I will make [H8799] H4960 their feasts H7937 , and I will make them drunken [H8689] H5937 , that they may rejoice [H8799] H3462 , and sleep [H8804] H5769 a perpetual H8142 sleep H6974 , and not wake [H8686] H5002 , saith [H8803] H3068 the LORD.

40 H3381 I will bring them down [H8686] H3733 like lambs H2873 to the slaughter [H8800] H352 , like rams H6260 with he goats.

41 H8347 How is Sheshach H3920 taken [H8738] H8416 ! and how is the praise H776 of the whole earth H8610 surprised [H8735] H894 ! how is Babylon H8047 become an astonishment H1471 among the nations!

42 H3220 The sea H5927 is come up [H8804] H894 upon Babylon H3680 : she is covered [H8738] H1995 with the multitude H1530 of the waves thereof.

43 H5892 Her cities H8047 are a desolation H6723 , a dry H776 land H6160 , and a wilderness H776 , a land H376 wherein no man H3427 dwelleth [H8799] H1121 , neither doth any son H120 of man H5674 pass [H8799] H2004 thereby.

44 H6485 And I will punish [H8804] H1078 Bel H894 in Babylon H3318 , and I will bring forth [H8689] H6310 out of his mouth H1105 that which he hath swallowed up H1471 : and the nations H5102 shall not flow together [H8799] H2346 any more unto him: yea, the wall H894 of Babylon H5307 shall fall [H8804] .

45 H5971 My people H3318 , go ye out [H8798] H8432 of the midst H4422 of her, and deliver [H8761] H376 ye every man H5315 his soul H2740 from the fierce H639 anger H3068 of the LORD.

46 H3824 And lest your heart H7401 faint [H8735] H3372 , and ye fear [H8799] H8052 for the rumour H8085 that shall be heard [H8737] H776 in the land H8052 ; a rumour H935 shall both come [H8804] H8141 one year H310 , and after H8141 that in another year H8052 shall come a rumour H2555 , and violence H776 in the land H4910 , ruler [H8802] H4910 against ruler [H8802] .

47 H3117 Therefore, behold, the days H935 come [H8802] H6485 , that I will do judgment [H8804] H6456 upon the graven images H894 of Babylon H776 : and her whole land H954 shall be confounded [H8799] H2491 , and all her slain H5307 shall fall [H8799] H8432 in the midst of her.

48 H8064 Then the heaven H776 and the earth H7442 , and all that is therein, shall sing [H8765] H894 for Babylon H7703 : for the spoilers [H8802] H935 shall come [H8799] H6828 unto her from the north H5002 , saith [H8803] H3068 the LORD.

49 H1571 As H894 Babylon H2491 hath caused the slain H3478 of Israel H5307 to fall [H8800] H894 , so at Babylon H5307 shall fall [H8804] H2491 the slain H776 of all the earth.

50 H6405 Ye that have escaped H2719 the sword H1980 , go away [H8798] H5975 , stand not still [H8799] H2142 : remember [H8798] H3068 the LORD H7350 afar off H3389 , and let Jerusalem H5927 come [H8799] H3824 into your mind.

51 H954 We are confounded [H8804] H8085 , because we have heard [H8804] H2781 reproach H3639 : shame H3680 hath covered [H8765] H6440 our faces H2114 : for strangers [H8801] H935 are come [H8804] H4720 into the sanctuaries H3068 of the LORD'S H1004 house.

52 H3117 Wherefore, behold, the days H935 come [H8802] H5002 , saith [H8803] H3068 the LORD H6485 , that I will do judgment [H8804] H6456 upon her graven images H776 : and through all her land H2491 the wounded H602 shall groan [H8799] .

53 H894 Though Babylon H5927 should mount up [H8799] H8064 to heaven H1219 , and though she should fortify [H8762] H4791 the height H5797 of her strength H227 , yet H7703 from me shall spoilers [H8802] H935 come [H8799] H5002 unto her, saith [H8803] H3068 the LORD.

54 H6963 A sound H2201 of a cry H894 cometh from Babylon H1419 , and great H7667 destruction H776 from the land H3778 of the Chaldeans:

55 H3068 Because the LORD H7703 hath spoiled [H8802] H894 Babylon H6 , and destroyed [H8765] H1419 out of her the great H6963 voice H1530 ; when her waves H1993 do roar [H8804] H7227 like great H4325 waters H7588 , a noise H6963 of their voice H5414 is uttered [H8738] :

56 H7703 Because the spoiler [H8802] H935 is come [H8804] H894 upon her, even upon Babylon H1368 , and her mighty men H3920 are taken [H8738] H7198 , every one of their bows H2865 is broken [H8765] H3068 : for the LORD H410 God H1578 of recompences H7999 shall surely [H8763] H7999 requite [H8762] .

57 H7937 And I will make drunk [H8689] H8269 her princes H2450 , and her wise H6346 men, her captains H5461 , and her rulers H1368 , and her mighty men H3462 : and they shall sleep [H8804] H5769 a perpetual H8142 sleep H6974 , and not wake [H8686] H5002 , saith [H8803] H4428 the King H8034 , whose name H3068 is the LORD H6635 of hosts.

58 H559 Thus saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD H6635 of hosts H7342 ; The broad H2346 walls H894 of Babylon H6209 shall be utterly [H8771] H6209 broken [H8698] H1364 , and her high H8179 gates H3341 shall be burned [H8799] H784 with fire H5971 ; and the people H3021 shall labour [H8799] H7385 in vain H3816 , and the folk H1767 in H784 the fire H3286 , and they shall be weary [H8804] .

KJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ³⁵ The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say. ³⁶ Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry. ³⁷ And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwellingplace for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant. ³⁸ They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lions' whelps. ³⁹ In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the LORD. ⁴⁰ I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he goats. ⁴¹ How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations! ⁴² The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof. ⁴³ Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth any son of man pass thereby. ⁴⁴ And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall. ⁴⁵ My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD. ⁴⁶ And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land; a rumour shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumour, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler. ⁴⁷ Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her. ⁴⁸ Then the heaven and the earth, and all that is therein, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come unto her from the north, saith the LORD. ⁴⁹ As Babylon hath caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth. ⁵⁰ Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the LORD afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind. ⁵¹ We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the LORD's house. ⁵² Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will do judgment upon her graven images: and through all her land the wounded shall groan. ⁵³ Though Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from me shall spoilers come unto her, saith the LORD. ⁵⁴ A sound of a cry cometh from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans: ⁵⁵ Because the LORD hath spoiled Babylon, and destroyed out of her the great voice; when her waves do roar like great waters, a noise of their voice is uttered: ⁵⁶ Because the spoiler is come upon her, even upon Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, every one of their bows is broken: for the LORD God of recompences shall surely requite. ⁵⁷ And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men, her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men: and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts. ⁵⁸ Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the people shall labour in vain, and the folk in the fire, and they shall be weary.
