“Listen!
The fugitives,
The refugees
From the land
Of Babylon,
Are coming
To declare in Zion
The vengeance
Of Yahweh,
Our God,
Vengeance
For his temple.”
As the people return from Babylon to Jerusalem, Zion, they are happy that God had brought his vengeance against the Babylonians. After all, the Babylonians had destroyed their Temple. Now the vengeance of Yahweh was destroying the Babylonian temples.
