Look at the land of the Babylonians,
this people that is now of no account!

a place for desert creatures;

they stripped its fortresses bare
and turned it into a ruin.
Behold the
land of the
Chaldeans!

wild beasts. They

Lord says:
‘“Those destined for death, to death;

when they
ask you, ‘
Where shall we
go?’ you shall
say to them, ‘Thus

Lord:
“‘Those
who are for
pestilence, to

sword, to the
sword;
those
who are for
famine, to
famine,

who are for

sword.

Therefore no other trees by the waters are ever to tower proudly on high, lifting their tops above the thick foliage. No other trees so well-watered are ever to reach such a height; they are all destined for death, for the earth below, among mortals who go down to the realm of the dead.
All this is in
order that no trees by the
waters may
grow to towering
height or set their
tops among the
clouds, and that
no trees that
drink water may
reach up to them in
height.

all given
over to
death,
to the
world below,
among the
children of
man, with those who
go down to the
pit.
