Jeremiah 25:9-11

9I am going to send for all the families of the north’  — this is the Lord’s declaration — ‘and send for my servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and I will bring them against this land, against its residents, and against all these surrounding nations, and I will completely destroy them and make them an example of horror and scorn, and ruins forever.

10I will eliminate the sound of joy and gladness from them — the voice of the groom and the bride, the sound of the millstones and the light of the lamp.

11This whole land will become a desolate ruin, and these nations will serve the king of Babylon for seventy years.
