Jeremiah 51:37-39

GOD’S WORD Translation

³⁷ Babylon will become piles of rubble.
It will become a dwelling place for jackals,
something horrible, and an object of contempt,
where no one lives.
³⁸ Its people are like roaring lions and growling lion cubs.
³⁹ When they are excited,
I will prepare a feast for them
and make them drunk so that they will shout and laugh.
They will fall into a deep sleep and never wake up again,
declares the Lord.
