Prepare your slaughter for his children
"Get ready to kill the children of the king of Babylon"
for the iniquity of their ancestors
"because their forefathers have sinned greatly"
so they will not rise up
"so they will not become powerful" or "so they will not attack"
possess the earth
"take control of the peoples on the earth" or "conquer the peoples on the earth"
fill the whole world with cities
"build cities all over the world"
