36So the Lord says,
“I will stand up for you.
I will pay the Babylonians back for what they did to you.
I will dry up their water supply.
I will make their springs run dry.
37Babylon will have all of its buildings knocked down.
It will be a home for wild dogs.
No one will live there.
People will be shocked at it.
They will make fun of it.

a desolation and an object of scorn,
without inhabitant.

Therefore thus says Yahweh,
“Look, I am going to contend your case,
and I will avenge your vengeance,
and I will cause her sea to dry up,
and I will cause her fountain to dry up.
And Babylon will become as a heap of stones,
a lair of jackals,
an object of horror, and an object of hissing,
without inhabitants.

Therefore thus saith the Lord;
Behold, I will plead thy cause,

And make her springs dry.
And Babylon shall become heaps,
A dwellingplace for dragons,
An astonishment, and an hissing,
Without an inhabitant.
