Jeremiah 51:37-43
37And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwellingplace for dragons, an horror, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.
38They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lions’ whelps.1
39In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunk, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the LORD.
40I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with male goats.
41How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an horror among the nations!
42The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of its waves.
43Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land in which no man dwelleth, neither doth any son of man pass by it.
