32 The fords have been seized,(A)
the marshes set on fire,
and the fighting men are terrified.

Daughter Babylon is like a threshing floor
at the time it is trampled.(B)
In just a little while her harvest time will come.(C)

34 “King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon has devoured me;
he has crushed me.
He has set me aside like an empty dish;
he has swallowed me like a sea monster;(D)
he filled his belly with my delicacies;
he has vomited me out.[a]
