them also--the Chaldees, who heretofore have made other nations their slaves, shall themselves also in their turn be slaves to them. Maurer translates, "shall impose servitude on them, even them."

their deeds--rather, "deed," namely, their bad treatment of the Jews (Jr 50:29; 51:6, 24; compare 2Ch 36:17).
