Jeremiah 51:40-42
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter,
like rams and goats.
41 How Sheshach[a] is taken,
the pride of the whole earth seized!
How Babylon has become
an object of horror among the nations!
42 The sea has risen over Babylon;
she has been covered by its tumultuous waves.

- Jeremiah 51:41 Sheshach is a cryptogram for Babel, Babylon
