# Prepare your slaughter for his children

"Get ready to kill the children of the king of Babylon"
# for the iniquity of their ancestors
This can be reworded so that the abstract noun "iniquity" is expressed as the verb "sinned greatly." Alternate translation: "because their forefathers have sinned greatly" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-abstractnouns]])

"take control of the peoples on the earth" or "conquer the peoples on the earth"
