11nBecause ye were glad, because ye rejoiced,

O ye destroyers of omine heritage,

Because ye are grown †fat pas the heifer qat grass,

And ||bellow as tbulls;

12Your mother shall be sore confounded;

She that bare you shall be ashamed:

Behold, the hindermost of the nations

Shall be ua wilderness, ua dry land, and ua desert.

13Because of the wrath of the Lord vit shall not be inhabited,

wBut it shall be wholly desolate: xevery one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished,

xAnd hiss at all her plagues.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

“Though you rejoice, though you exult,

O plunderers of my heritage,

though you frolic like a heifer in the pasture,

and neigh like stallions,

your mother shall be utterly shamed,

and she who bore you shall be disgraced.

Behold, she shall be the last of the nations,

a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.

Because of the wrath of the Lord she shall not be inhabited

but shall be an utter desolation;

everyone who passes by Babylon shall be appalled,

and hiss because of all her wounds.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“Because you rejoice and are glad,

you who pillage my inheritance,

because you frolic like a heifer threshing grain

and neigh like stallions,

your mother will be greatly ashamed;

she who gave you birth will be disgraced.

She will be the least of the nations—

a wilderness, a dry land, a desert.

Because of the Lord’s anger she will not be inhabited

but will be completely desolate.

All who pass Babylon will be appalled;

they will scoff because of all her wounds.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Because you rejoice,

because you celebrate—

you who plundered my inheritance—

because you frolic like a young cow treading grain

and neigh like stallions,

your mother will be utterly humiliated;

she who bore you will be put to shame.

Look! She will lag behind all the nations—

an arid wilderness, a desert.

Because of the Lord’s wrath,

she will not be inhabited;

she will become a desolation, every bit of her.

Everyone who passes through Babylon

will be appalled

and scoff because of all her wounds.

NLTNew Living Translation

“You rejoice and are glad,

you who plundered my chosen people.

You frisk about like a calf in a meadow

and neigh like a stallion.

But your homeland will be overwhelmed

with shame and disgrace.

You will become the least of nations—

a wilderness, a dry and desolate land.

Because of the Lord’s anger,

Babylon will become a deserted wasteland.

All who pass by will be horrified

and will gasp at the destruction they see there.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

“Though you rejoice, though you exult,

O plunderers of my inheritance,

though you frisk about like a heifer on the grass,

and you neigh like the powerful stallions,

your mother will be very ashamed.

She who gave birth to you will be humiliated.

Look, she will be the least of the nations,

a desert, dry land, and wilderness.

Because of the anger of Yahweh she will not be inhabited,

but she will be a wasteland, all of her.

Everyone who passes by Babylon will be appalled

and will hiss because of all her wounds.
