³⁵ May Babylon be violated as our bodies were,
    say the inhabitants of Zion.
May our blood be on the Babylonians,
    say those from Jerusalem.
³⁶ Therefore, the Lord proclaims:
        I’m going to defend your cause;
        I’ll turn the tables on your attacker.
        I’ll dry up her sea;
        I’ll shut up her springs.
³⁷ Babylon will become a heap of ruins,
    a den of wild dogs, a wasteland
        with no one left in it.
