33 For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel;
34 Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon has devoured me, he has crushed me, he has made me an empty vessel, he has swallowed me up like a monster, he has filled his belly with my delicacies, he has cast me out.
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 says the LORD;
37 And Babylon shall become a heap, a dwelling place for jackals, an astonishment, and a hissing, without an inhabitant.
38 They shall roar together like lions: they shall growl as lions' whelps.
39 In their excitement I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunk, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake,
