The word which the LORD spoke concerning Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, through Jeremiah the prophet:
Dies ist das Wort, welches der HERR durch den Propheten Jeremia geredet hat wider Babel und das Land der Chaldäer:
“Declare and proclaim among the nations.
Proclaim it and lift up a standard.
Do not conceal it but say,
‘Babylon has been captured,
Bel has been put to shame, Marduk has been shattered;
Her images have been put to shame, her idols have been shattered.’

Verkündiget unter den Heiden und laßt erschallen, werfet ein Panier auf; laßt erschallen und verberget’s nicht und sprecht: Babel ist gewonnen, Bel steht mit Schanden, Merodach ist zerschmettert; ihre Götzen stehen mit Schanden, und ihre Götter sind zerschmettert!

They have gone along from mountain to hill
And have forgotten their resting place.

“All who came upon them have devoured them;
And their adversaries have said, ‘We are not guilty,
Inasmuch as they have sinned against the LORD who is the habitation of righteousness,
Even the LORD, the hope of their fathers.’

“Because you are glad, because you are jubilant,
O you who pillage My heritage,
Because you skip about like a threshing heifer
And neigh like stallions,
O you who pillage My heritage,
Because you skip about like a threshing heifer
And neigh like stallions,
darum daß ihr euch des freuet und rühmet, daß ihr mein Erbteil geplündert habt, und hüpfet wie die jungen Kälber und wiehert wie die starken Gäule.

Take vengeance on her;
As she has done to others, so do to her.
