- "Thus¹ saithª° thy Lordª the LORD,ª and thy Godª [that] pleadeth²° the cause¹ of his people,ª Behold,¹ I have taken¹ out²° of thine handª¹¹ the cupª of trembling,ª [even]¹ the dregsª of the cupª of my fury;ª thou shalt no¹ moreª° drink¹ it again:²°¹ ... But I will putª° it into the handª of them that afflictª° thee; which¹ have saidª° to thy soul,ª Bow down,ª° that we may go over:ª° and thou hast laidª° thy bodyª as the ground,ª and as the street,ª to them that went over.ª°" {Isa 51:22-23} + "Israelª [is] a scatteredª° sheep;ª the lionsª have driven [him] away:ª° firstª the kingª of Assyriaª hath devouredª° him; and lastª this¹ Nebuchadrezzarª kingª of Babylonª hath broken his bones.ª°" {Jer 50:17} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORDª of hosts;ª The childrenª of Israelª and the childrenª of Judahª [were] oppressedª° together:ª and all¹ that took them captivesª° held them fast;ª° they refusedª° to let them go.ª° ... Their Redeemerª° [is] strong;ª the LORDª of hostsª [is] his name:ª he shall throughly²° pleadª°¹ their cause,ª that¹ he may give restª°¹ to the land,ª and disquietª° the inhabitantsª° of Babylon.ª" {Jer 50:33-34} + "For¹ thus¹ saithª° the LORDª of hosts,ª the Godª of Israel;ª The daughterª of Babylonª [is] like a threshingfloor,ª [it is] timeª to threshª° her: yet¹ a little while,ª and the timeª of her harvestª shall come.ª° ... Therefore¹ thus¹ saithª° the LORD;ª Behold,¹ I will pleadª°¹ thy cause,ª and take vengeance²° for thee;ª¹¹ and I will dry upª°¹ her sea,ª and make¹ her springsª dry.ª°" {Jer 51:33-36}
