Jeremiah 51:37-43

37Babylon shall become a heap, A dwelling place for jackals, An astonishment and a hissing, Without an inhabitant.

38They shall roar together like lions, They shall growl like lions’ whelps.

39In their excitement I will prepare their feasts; I will make them drunk, That they may rejoice, And sleep a perpetual sleep And not awake,” says the Lord.

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

41“Oh, how Sheshach is taken! Oh, how the praise of the whole earth is seized! How Babylon has become desolate among the nations!

42The sea has come up over Babylon; She is covered with the multitude of its waves.

43Her cities are a desolation, A dry land and a wilderness, A land where no one dwells, Through which no son of man passes.
