32 The river crossing places have been seized,
And they have burned the marshes with fire,
And the men of war are terrified.

33 For this is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel says:
“The daughter of Babylon is like a (A)threshing floor
At the time that [a]it is tread down;
In just a little while the time of (B)harvest will come for her.”

34 “Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon has (C)devoured me, he has crushed me,
He has set me down like an (D)empty vessel;
He has (E)swallowed me like a monster,
He has filled his stomach with my delicacies;
He has washed me away.
