Jeremiah 51:37-43

37And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling-place of jackals, an astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant.

38They shall roar together like young lions, growl as lions' whelps.

39When they are heated, I will prepare their drink, and I will make them drunken, that they may exult, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith Jehovah.

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

41How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth seized! How is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!

42The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of its waves.

43Her cities are become a desolation, a dry land, and a desert, a land wherein no one dwelleth, neither doth a son of man pass thereby.
