35. The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and, My blood be 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 fountain dry.
37. And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling place for jackals, an astonishment, and an hissing, without inhabitant.
38. They shall roar together like young lions; they shall growl as lions' whelps.
39. When they are heated, I will make their feast, 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.
