    and she who bore you shall be disgraced.

13 (B)Because of the wrath of the Lord she shall not be inhabited
    but shall be an utter desolation;
(C)everyone who passes by Babylon shall be appalled,
    (D)and hiss because of all her wounds.
14 (E)Set yourselves in array against Babylon all around,
    (F)all you who bend the bow;
shoot at her, spare no arrows,
    (G)for she has sinned against the Lord.
