Jeremiah 51:36-42

36Therefore, this is what the Lord says: I am about to champion your cause and take vengeance on your behalf; I will dry up her sea and make her fountain run dry.

37Babylon will become a heap of rubble, a jackals’ den, a desolation and an object of scorn, without inhabitant.

38They will roar together like young lions; they will growl like lion cubs.

39While they are flushed with heat, I will serve them a feast, and I will make them drunk so that they celebrate. Then they will fall asleep forever and never wake up. This is the Lord’s declaration.

40I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams together with male goats.

41How Sheshak has been captured, the praise of the whole earth seized. What a horror Babylon has become among the nations!

42The sea has risen over Babylon; she is covered with its tumultuous waves.
