[O Babylon] you who live by many waters,
Rich in treasures,
Your end has come,
And the line measuring your life is cut.^(A)

The Lord of hosts has sworn [an oath] by Himself, saying,
“Surely I will fill you with men, as with [a swarm of] locusts [who strip the land clean],
And they will lift up a song and shout of victory over you.”

He made the earth by His power;
He established the world by His wisdom
And stretched out the heavens by His understanding.
