Jeremiah 51:32-34

Common English Bible

³² The river crossings are blocked;
    the marshes are on fire;
    the soldiers are terrified.

³⁴ Babylon’s King Nebuchadnezzar has eaten us alive;
    he’s drained us of strength;
        he’s left us for dead.^[a]
He’s gobbled us up like a great sea monster;
    he’s filled his belly with our treasures;
        and he’s spit us out.
