Jeremiah 51:29-31

New International Reader's Version

²⁹ The Babylonians tremble and shake with fear.
    My plans against them stand firm.
I plan to destroy their land completely.
    Then no one will live there.
³⁰ Babylon’s soldiers have stopped fighting.
    They remain in their forts.
Their strength is all gone.
    They have become weak.
Their buildings are set on fire.
    The metal bars that lock their gates are broken.
³¹ One messenger after another
    comes to the king of Babylon.
All of them announce that
    his entire city is captured.
