Jeremiah 51:8-9

8Suddenly 1Babylon has fallen and been broken; 2Wail over her! 3Bring 4balm for her pain; Perhaps she may be healed.9We applied healing to Babylon, but she was not healed; Forsake her and 5let us each go to his own country, For her judgment has 6reached to heaven And 7towers up to the very skies.
