‏ Jeremiah 51:34

34. me--Zion speaks. Her groans are what bring down retribution in kind on Babylon (Jr 50:17; Psa 102:13, 17, 20).

empty vessel--He has drained me out.

dragon--The serpent often "swallows" its prey whole; or a sea monster [Grotius].

filled his belly ... cast me out--like a beast, which, having "filled" himself to satiety, "casts out" the rest [Calvin]. After filling all his storehouses with my goods, he has cast me out of this land [Grotius].
