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.(A)

Shoot at her! Do not spare an arrow,
for she has sinned against the Lord.

her defence towers have fallen;
her walls are demolished.(B)

take your vengeance on her;
as she has done, do the same to her.
