¹³ Because of the wrath of the Lord
She shall not be inhabited,
^(A)But she shall be wholly desolate.
^(B)Everyone who goes by Babylon shall be horrified
And hiss at all her plagues.

²² “For I will rise up against them,” says the Lord of hosts,
“And cut off from Babylon ^(A)the name and ^(B)remnant,
^(C)And offspring and posterity,” says the Lord.
²³ “I will also make it a possession for the ^(D)porcupine,
And marshes of muddy water;
I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” says the Lord of hosts.
