Jeremiah 51:55-57

Revised Geneva Translation

⁵⁵ because the LORD has laid Babel waste and destroyed her great voice. And her waves shall roar like great waters. A sound was made by their noise

⁵⁶ because the destroyer has come upon her (upon Babel) and her strong men are taken; their bows are broken. For the LORD God, Who repays, shall surely repay.

⁵⁷ “And I will make her princes drunk, and her wise men, her dukes, and her nobles, and her strong men. And they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake,” says the King, Whose Name is the LORD of Hosts.
