I will punish Bel in Babylon. I will make him vomit what he swallowed. The nations will no longer stream to him; even Babylon’s wall will fall.

He swallows wealth but must vomit it up; God will force it from his stomach.

Look, the Lord is stripping the earth bare and making it desolate. He will twist its surface and scatter its inhabitants:people and priest alike, servant and master, female servant and mistress, buyer and seller, lender and borrower, creditor and debtor.The earth will be stripped completely bare and will be totally plundered, for the Lord has spoken this message.

All your enemies open their mouths against you. They hiss and gnash their teeth, saying,“ We have swallowed her up. This is the day we have waited for! We have lived to see it.”

therefore, prophesy and say: This is what the Lord God says: Because they have made you desolate and have trampled you from every side, so that you became a possession for the rest of the nations and an object of people’s gossip and slander,

Hear this, you who trample on the needy and do away with the poor of the land,

For the Lord will restore the majesty of Jacob, yes, the majesty of Israel, though ravagers have ravaged them and ruined their vine branches.

My transgressions have been formed into a yoke, fastened together by His hand; they have been placed on my neck, and the Lord has broken my strength. He has handed me over to those I cannot withstand.The Lord has rejected all the mighty men within me. He has summoned an army against me to crush my young warriors. The Lord has trampled Virgin Daughter Judah like grapes in a winepress.

“ Plunder the silver! Plunder the gold!” There is no end to the treasure, an abundance of every precious thing.Desolation, decimation, devastation! Hearts melt, knees tremble, loins shake, every face grows pale!

Let’s swallow them alive, like Sheol, still healthy as they go down to the Pit.

How she sits alone, the city once crowded with people! She who was great among the nations has become like a widow. The princess among the provinces has been put to forced labor.

Moab has been left quiet since his youth, settled like wine on its dregs. He hasn’t been poured from one container to another or gone into exile. So his taste has remained the same, and his aroma hasn’t changed.Therefore look, the days are coming— this is the Lord’s declaration— when I will send those to him, who will pour him out. They will empty his containers and smash his jars.

All who found them devoured them. Their adversaries said,“ We’re not guilty; instead, they have sinned against the Lord, their righteous grazing land, the hope of their ancestors, the Lord.”

The desert owl and the screech owl will possess it, and the great owl and the raven will dwell there. The Lord will stretch out a measuring line and a plumb line over her for her destruction and chaos.

They left along the route to the Arabah.However, the Chaldean army pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, arrested him, and brought him to Nebuchadnezzar, Babylon’s king, at Riblah in the land of Hamath.
