Jer 51:14 · Douay-Rheims
“The Lord of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying: I will fill thee with men as with locusts, and they shall lift up a joyful shout against thee.”
On this verse:
“by himself--literally, "by His soul" (Sa2 15:21; Heb 6:13). fill . . . with caterpillars--locusts (Nah 3:15). Numerous as are the citizens of Babylon, the invaders shall be more numerous.”
