Jeremiah 51:61-64
61Then JeremiahH3414 saidH559 to SeraiahH8304, “As soon as you comeH935 to BabylonH894, seeH7200 that you readH7121 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 aloud,
62and sayH559, ‘You, LordH3068, have 1promisedH1696 concerningH413 thisH2088 placeH4725 to 2cutH3772 it offH3772, so that there will be 3nothingH1115 livingH3427 in it, 4whetherH4480 manH120 or animalH929; but it will be a permanentH5769 desolationH8077.’
63And as soon as you finishH3615 readingH7121 thisH2088 5scrollH5612, you shall tieH7194 a stoneH68 to it and 6throwH7993 it into the middleH8432 of the EuphratesH6578,
64and sayH559, ‘JustH3602 soH3602 shall BabylonH894 sinkH8257 downH8257 and 7not riseH6965 again, becauseH4480H6440 of the disasterH7463 that I am going to bringH935 upon her; and they will becomeH3286 8exhaustedH3286.’” 9To thisH2008 pointH2008 are the wordsH1697 of JeremiahH3414.
