Israel’s Taunt against Babylon

14 When the Lord (A)has compassion on Jacob and again (B)chooses Israel, and settles them on their own land, then (C)strangers will join them and attach themselves to the house of Jacob. The peoples will take them along and bring them to their place, and the (D)house of Israel will make them their own possession in the land of the Lord (E)as male and female servants; and [a]they will take their captors captive and will rule over their oppressors.

23 (A)Kings will be your guardians,
And their princesses your nurses.
They will (B)bow down to you with their faces to the ground
And (C)lick the dust from your feet;
And you will (D)know that I am the Lord;
Those who hopefully (E)wait for Me will (F)not be put to shame.
