“We tried to heal Babylon, but she could not be healed. Abandon her! Let each of us go to his own land, for her judgment extends to the sky and reaches to the clouds.”
Context
7Babeli alikuwa kikombe cha dhahabu katika mkono wa Bwana;
aliufanya ulimwengu wote ulewe.
Mataifa walikunywa mvinyo wake;
kwa hiyo sasa wameingiwa na wazimu. 8Babeli ataanguka ghafula na kuvunjika.
Mwombolezeni!
Tafuteni zeri ya kutuliza maumivu yake,
labda anaweza kupona. 9“ ‘Tungemponya Babeli,
lakini hawezi kuponyeka;
tumwacheni, na kila mmoja wetu aende nchi yake mwenyewe,
kwa kuwa hukumu yake inafika angani,
inapanda juu hadi mawinguni.’ 10“ ‘Bwana amethibitisha haki yetu;
njooni, tutangaze katika Sayuni
kitu ambacho Bwana Mungu wetu amefanya.’ 11“Noeni mishale,
chukueni ngao!
Bwana amewaamsha wafalme wa Wamedi,
kwa sababu nia yake ni kuangamiza Babeli.
Bwana atalipiza kisasi,
kisasi kwa ajili ya Hekalu lake.
