4 you will accept this parable against the king of Babylon, and you will say: “How is it that the oppressor has ceased, along with his tribute? 5 The Lord has crushed the staff of the impious, the scepter of despots, 6 which struck the people in wrath with an incurable wound, which subjugated the nations in fury, which persecuted with cruelty. 7 All the earth has become quiet and still; it has been gladdened and has rejoiced.
