Jeremiah 51:38

May the violence done to me and to my flesh be on Babylon!”

the inhabitant of Zion will say; and,

“May my blood be on the inhabitants of Chaldea!”

will Jerusalem say.

Therefore the LORD says:

“Behold, I will plead your cause,

and take vengeance for you.

I will dry up her sea,

and make her fountain dry.

Babylon will become heaps,

a dwelling place for jackals,

an astonishment, and a hissing,

without inhabitant.

When they are inflamed, I will make their feast,

and I will make them drunk,

that they may rejoice,

and sleep a perpetual sleep,

and not wake up,” says the LORD.

“I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter,

like rams with male goats.

“How Sheshach is taken!

How the praise of the whole earth is seized!

How Babylon has become a desolation among the nations!
