Jeremiah 51:40-42

Common English Bible

⁴⁰ I’ll lead them off
    like lambs for slaughter,
    like rams and goats.

⁴¹ How Sheshach^[a] has been defeated,
    the pride of the whole earth taken captive!
How Babylon has become a wasteland
    among the nations!
⁴² The sea has risen over Babylon;
    its pounding waves overwhelm her.
