¹² Let there be none to extend kindness to him, Neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children.

⁴ His children are far from safety, They are crushed in the gate. Neither is there any to deliver them,

⁸ Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, He will be happy who rewards you, As you have served us.

⁹ Happy shall he be, Who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock.

¹⁷ Therefore the Lord will not rejoice over their young men, neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows; for everyone is profane and an evil-doer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

¹⁸ [Their] bows shall dash the young men in pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.

¹¹ When the boughs of it are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come, and set them on fire; for it is a people of no understanding: therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them, and he who formed them will show them no favor.

²⁵ All the people answered, "May his blood be on us, and on our children!"

³⁸ "Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be given to you.{literally, into your bosom.} For with the same measure you measure it will be measured back to you."

⁵⁰ that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

⁵¹ from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.' Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.

¹³ For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
