What the inhabitant of Zion and Jerusalem will say, and the LORD’s word, “I will plead your cause”
시온 거민과 예루살렘이 할 말과 "내가 네 송사를 듣고"라는 여호와의 말씀
Jeremiah 51:34–44: “Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon has devoured me. He has crushed me. He has made me an empty vessel. He has, like a monster, swallowed me up. He has filled his mouth with my delicacies. He has cast me out. May the violence done to me and to my flesh be on Babylon!” the inhabitant of Zion will say; and, “May my blood be on the inhabitants of Chaldea!” will Jerusalem say. Therefore the LORD says: “Behold, I will plead your cause, and take vengeance for you. I will dry up her sea, and make her fountain dry. Babylon will become heaps, a dwelling place for jackals, an astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant. They will roar together like young lions. They will growl as lions’ cubs. When they are inflamed, I will make their feast, and I will make them drunk, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake up,” says the LORD. The text goes on, “I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with male goats. How Sheshach is taken! How the praise of the whole earth is seized! How Babylon has become a desolation among the nations! The sea has come up on Babylon. She is covered with the multitude of its waves. Her cities have become a desolation, a dry land, and a desert, a land in which no man dwells. No son of man passes by it. I will execute judgment on Bel in Babylon, and I will bring out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up. The nations will not flow any more to him. Yes, the wall of Babylon will fall.” WEB does not close at 51:44 the quotation it opens at 51:40: it opens its marks again at 51:41 and closes the quotation only at 51:48. The Korean Revised Version gives 51:40–44 with no word naming who speaks; at 51:34 it reads 용 같이 (like a dragon), where WEB reads “like a monster”, and 나의 좋은 음식으로 그 배를 채우고 (filled his belly with my good food), where WEB reads “He has filled his mouth with my delicacies”.
