2:6 這些國的民豈不都要提起詩歌並俗語譏刺他說:禍哉!迦勒底人,你增添不屬自己的財物,多多取人的當頭,要到幾時為止呢?
2:7 咬傷你的豈不忽然起來,擾害你的豈不興起,你就作他們的擄物嗎?
2:8 因你搶奪許多的國,殺人流血,向國內的城並城中一切居民施行強暴,所以各國剩下的民都必搶奪你。
Shall not all these take up their taunt
against him, with scoffing and riddles for him, and say,
"Woe to him who heaps up what is not his
own—
for how long? —
and loads himself with pledges!"
Will not your debtors suddenly arise,
and those awake who will make you tremble?
Then you will be spoil for them.
Because you have plundered many nations,
all the remnant of the peoples shall
plunder you,
for
the blood of man and violence to the earth,
to cities and all who dwell in them.

迦勒底人貪得無厭,攻擊別的國家,搶奪別人的資產,最後必定受到報應!
這也是對喜歡侵略別人的國家所提出之警告,因為這是違反上帝的公義本性,所以上帝必定追討!因為上帝是公義的上帝,不容許不公義之事情發生!
當然,天地間最不公義的事情,就是魔鬼將屬上帝的子民搶奪成為自己的,使他們與上帝隔絕而以至於「死」!所以,上帝必定要打敗魔鬼,使其落到地獄火湖之中,好將人拯救起來,不再受「死」與「罪」轄制,得自由與真正的平安!
