Jeremiah 51:40-42

New Living Translation

⁴⁰ “I will bring them down
    like lambs to the slaughter,
    like rams and goats to be sacrificed.

⁴¹ “How Babylon^[a] is fallen—
    great Babylon, praised throughout the earth!
Now she has become an object of horror
    among the nations.
⁴² The sea has risen over Babylon;
    she is covered by its crashing waves.
